I was lucky to share in pupils favourite things and it was great to see lots of children enjoying reading, playing games, spending time outside, swimming, building Lego and drawing, to name a few activities KIS loves! If you get a chance to do something you love this weekend, what will you do? Perhaps you may take the chance to complete our latest fun challenge?!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is the last chance you have to complete the April Monthly Maths Challenge!

All entries for the Monthly Maths Challenge are due by Friday 30th April 2021.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As this week saw the celebration of Earth Day on April 22nd, the weekly Fun Dojo Challenge is a chance to reflect and enjoy the world we live in. Get out and enjoy a walk on the beach, take a hike, paddle in the ocean and enjoy any nature based activity. As the 2021 Earth Day theme is to restore our Earth, make a pledge of what you can do to reduce, reuse, recycle and make a change for the better. Share your pledges and photos on your Dojo portfolio to earn housepoints for your House!<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Take a check back through our School Story posts to share past B@B stories and next week we\u2019ll return with yet another brand new story read by another member of our KIS staff!!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you missed the challenges when they were shared on Dojo on Friday, please check out School Story on Dojo to find the link to the Weekly Dojo Challenge folder.
