International Partner School Work

During the October half-term teachers from Newlands and Charles Kingsley's Primary Schools travelled to Nairobi, Kenya to work with children from three inner-city primary schools, their staff and children.  We had the opportunity to share ideas, learn from each other and remove some stereotypes along the way.

Together, we made some images to promote the British Council and the UN's Global Goals.
