One of the best camps to attend is probably the grade 6 camp.
So many memories, lessons and morals were learnt. I wonder where one should even start to begin explaining why the grade sixes looked so tired on Friday or shall we just keep it a secret? Maybe a few photo’s will help us explain…
It is a funny thing how many of us spend most of our lives not knowing much, if anything, about our surnames and where they come from. Yet, our surnames are the first sense of belonging we are given, our first identity.
The grade 6s were given the task of researching their surname as well as their family history. They then had to present their findings to the class in the form of an oral…and it has been fascinating!
It has been wonderful to learn about the diverse backgrounds which we all come from and to be able to celebrate our heritage. Many of the children have been very surprised by what they have learned about their parents, grandparents and forefathers.
What a fun and special way to learn more about each other!
