Year 6 Learn the Power of Respect with The Karate Kid: Legends

Year 6 Learn the Power of Respect with The Karate Kid: Legends

 

This week, Year 6 enjoyed an exciting trip to the cinema to watch The Karate Kid: Legends — and it couldn’t have come at a better time, as it linked perfectly with Anti-Bullying Week.

The film follows a young student learning martial arts not just to defend himself, but to find confidence, self-control and respect for others. These powerful themes sparked brilliant discussions back at school about what it really means to stand up to bullying in a positive way.

Year 6 reflected on how kindness, empathy and courage can make a difference — both in the dojo and in the classroom. We talked about how, just like the characters in the film, we all have the strength to make good choices and support others who might be struggling.

Year 5 and their Terrific Trolls

 

This week, Year 5 had the opportunity to travel to Dagenham Vue cinema in order to watch the film Trolls 3.

We all enjoyed the film and the independence and experience of walking into the cinema, finding our seats,

enjoying our snacks and simply sitting back to take in the film.

We managed to make links to our narrative in Literacy and discussed the mountain on the way back.

The morning involved using two of our 4 R’s, these being resilience with the journey and ensuring we completed

a slightly longer route safely.

We also used our reflectiveness when considering our behaviour in the cinema and how we considered

ties to our current learning.
