What a wonderful day Year 2 ! First we discovered a mysterious bag filled with the belongings of the legendary explorer Ernest Shackleton, the whole class then took a step into his world. Together, we will constructed the majestic Endurance ship using cardboard boxes, nets, and colorful props, filling the entire classroom! Each child adopted a real character, interviewed for their role on deck, and selected a prop that would bring their job to life. With music, movement, and performance, we immersed ourselves in the thrilling journey aboard the Endurance, sailing toward Antarctica. As we ventured through this dramatic experience, the children discovered fascinating facts about Shackleton, his crew and dogs, the harsh Antarctic climate, and the power of positivity and teamwork in overcoming any challenge!
