During
our 2008 'Geography & Arts Fortnight' Year
5 and 6 learnt about China. At the end of the fortnight the
children took part in a performance to show some of the things they
had learnt. Below are some clips from this event; press play to
watch them (the video will open up full screen).

Throughout
the two weeks the children enjoyed lots of different workshops. Videos
from some of the workshops are below, on the left hand side. When you press play
it will load up 'full screen'; when the clip has finished the page
will return to normal. If you wish to stop the video playing in
'full screen' press escape while you are watching it.
To

sound files that are on the right!
