Wednesday 11th June marked International Day of Play. It was therefore very fitting that we held our Kidz Academy End of Year Fun Days this week where the children in Years 2-6 had an opportunity to partake in a variety of playful activities to include art, ICT, cookery, technology and sport. To top it all off, everyone enjoyed a delicious ice cream treat, adding a sweet touch to an already fantastic celebration. Lots of fun learning through play related activities was had by all!
As the renowned play advocate Fred Rogers once said, “Play is often talked about as if it were a relief from serious learning. But for children, play is serious learning.” This week was a perfect reminder of just how powerful and enriching play can be.
