What is Funky Friday?
Every child's voice at St. Oswald's is important to us.
Every Friday afternoon in Dosbarth Little Acorns, we have Funky Friday. This provides an opportunity for children to lead their own learning.
Children are read a story and share ideas based on activities they would like to complete based on the text read.
The following week, the teacher sets up each activity for children to complete. The next text is read and children plan activities to complete the following week.
