Hi Year 5. This is the video you must work with. Write a list with all the animals you see.

Easy tasks for huge steps. Here is the song you really enjoyed last week. If someone has ideas for different games, they will be welcome.

Hi everyone as you already Know every year, countless numbers of primates are taken by humans from their natural habitat, or are bred in captivity with the aim of gaining profit. They are taken from their social group at a young age with the objective of selling them as pets, or exploiting them for show (circuses, films, publicity, etc.)
These animals are often kept in terrible conditions, and lack basic needs which are crucial for their proper development. This can lead to serious health issues, both psychological and physical. In the case of animals that have been used in show business, the traumas can be worse due to severe physical abuse from a young age. This is done in order to train and manipulate them without any opposition or resistance. However, when these primates reach a certain age, they become uncontrollable and can no longer be used. This leads to their abandonment and they end up being kept the cheapest way possible, and in extremely poor conditions.

When used as pets, primates can develop various traumas and unnatural behaviours. This is because they are taken from their parents and social group from a young age and are unable to learn the natural behaviours of their species. Therefore, as they lose the opportunity to grow in an appropriate social group, they do not thrive as they should. Inevitably, they lack basic social skills and develop enduring psychological traumas that can last a lifetime.


Rainfer gives these primates a second chance. Our goal is to rescue, rehabilitate and introduce these primates into an appropriate social group, where they can live in environmentally, naturalised enclosures. Here, they are positively stimulated, learn from their peers how to freely display natural behaviours and strive to be happy. We give home and hope to more than 130 primates.

All right kids here's Christian the lion that John and Ace rescued once. Listen to the tender story and think about what you could do to help mistreated animals.

In July 1960, at the age of 26, Jane Goodall traveled from England to what is now Tanzania and

bravely entered the little-known world of wild chimpanzees. She was equipped with nothing more

 than a notebook and a pair of binoculars. But with her unyielding patience and characteristic

 optimism, she won the trust of these initially shy creatures, and she managed to open a window into

 their sometimes strange and often familiar-seeming lives. The public was fascinated and remains so

 to this day

.
 Today, Jane’s work revolves around inspiring action on behalf of endangered species, particularly

chimpanzees, and encouraging people to do their part to make the world a better place for people

, animals, and the environment we all share. The Jane Goodall Institute works to protect the famous

 chimpanzees of Gombe National Park in Tanzania, but recognizes this cannot be accomplished

without a comprehensive approach that addresses the needs of local people who are critical to

 chimpanzee survival.

I wish you a very happy Easter. Rest and spend time with your families.

Do you remember this song? Carmen brought it to the classroom and we loved it. Share it with your family and friends.

And the lava song. A beautiful love story.

Recycled CD Bird Craft

Recycled CDs are put to good use in this fun bird craft for kids. Hang these at the window and watch them sparkle!

You will need:
2 old CDs or DVDs
Glass pens
Strong glue
Ribbon
Coloured cellophane (you could use old carrier bags and food packaging)

Instructions:
Decorate the plain sides of the CDs with glass pens and allow to dry.
Cut two legs, a triangle for the beak and three oval 'feather' shapes from cellophane.
Glue the beak, legs and feathers to the face of one CD. Glue the two CDs face to face with the ribbon in between.
If you like you can cut two teardrop shaped wings from cellophane and glue these to the middle of the CDs. They don't show up well in our photos but if you look closely you can just catch a glimpse of a green wing here:
