Last Thursday, all KS1 children came into school dressed in flowery shirts, swimming shorts and flip flops accompanied with their suitcases. As they entered school, they soon realised that their classrooms were no longer classrooms; they had been transformed into departure lounges ready to jet off to the Caribbean!
Throughout the day the children had to check in with their passports and boarding passes, experience the thrill of take-off and flying to and from the Caribbean (complete with in-flight entertainment and food!), leave their luggage in hotel rooms and have time to relax on the beach and chill by the pool! Mysteriously, all KS1 teachers and TA’s had disappeared all day and were instead replaced by Captains, Flight Attendants and Holiday reps!
It was a fantastic day and a wonderful learning experience to prepare us for our ‘Holidays’ topic this half term. Do you remember when you flew to the Caribbean in KS1? If so, what was your favourite part of the day?
What a fantastic day you had Key Stage 1! The Upper Juniors saw you jetting off on your holiday and you certainly looked the part! I am glad that you all returned safely under the care of your very professional looking airline crew!
Looks like you had lots of fun KS1 🙂
WOW! it sounds like you had a great day KS1 I remember when I flew off to the
Caribbean, it truly shown me a great experience of what its like to go on holiday and all the things that you need to do before you take flight.

wow! I remember when I flew to Europe at my old school! I wonder how it was like?
I remember when I had my entry point for this topic! I got all enthusiastic because I thought we were actually getting on a plane on the playground. I was worried because I didn’t pack any suncream! Thank god I didn’t ask to borrow the person next to me’s. However, I still had an amazing time! 🙂

I bet the Year 1’s were very excited because this was probably their first entry point in the Infants! I hope they all had a great time.
