Minions, astronauts and baking – more activities and inspiration for children
Children can have minion-tastic fun joining Chris Meledandri (Co-Founder & CEO of Illumination) and Brad Ableson (Co-Director of Minions: The Rise of Gru) as they show us how to draw a Minion.
Share your Children's creations online by using the hashtags #creativity&confidence and #myminion. We can’t wait to see what they come up with!
Children can also get their mixing bowls ready as Bake Off: The Professionals judge Benoit Blin lets us in on the secret to making his favourite childhood yoghurt cake recipe.
Sesame Street and Broadway set designer David Gallo shows us that creativity knows no bounds as we drop in on him in his studio (be ready for lots of surprises along the way).
We also have inspiring messages from Helen Sharman (the first British person in space), Billy Collins (poet laureate of the United States 2001-2003), Dan Brulé (pioneer in the field of breathwork) and Lance Corporal Richard Jones (the only magician to ever win Britain’s Got Talent).
ONLINE PHONICS LESSONS
We are pleased to let you know that your child can receive a daily phonics lesson whilst schools are closed. Phonics is the way we teach children to recognise the sounds in words. It helps your child to learn to read and is an essential part of your child’s education.
During the summer term, you will be able to access for your child a daily phonics lesson by Clicking on Letters and Sounds for home and school. All lessons are introduced by celebrities, including children’s TV presenters, which adds an exciting addition to the lessons.
