Mr. Humble's Year 6
We are the Year 6 children at St. Oswald's Primary School in Burneside near Kendal in the Lake District of England. This picture was taken when we were on a recent residential trip and we'd gone to do a spot of rock climbing. We live in a small and busy village in a beautiful part of our country. This area is visited by lots of tourists from all around the world. The Lakes are famous for being the home of the poet William Wordsworth and the children's author Beatrix Potter. Check us out on Google Earth and you'll see what we mean. The Year 6 children help run our school website at www.st-oswalds.cumbria.sch.uk . We help to maintain the website in our spare time with our teacher. Class 5 are working very hard this year at developing links with lots of schools from around the globe and we are setting up e-mail links with children from America, Europe, Africa and Asia. We are looking forward to making our second international monster and we wish good luck to everyone who is involved. From the St. Oswald's Monster Makers |
