Olympic Assembly

Yesterday Key Stage 2 had an assembly about the Olympics from a representative from BT. She talked to us about values of the Olympics and the Paralympics and how we can incorporate these into our own lives. We also learned about the history of the Olympic games and why we have five rings and why they are those colours. We met the mascots: Wenlock and Mandeville and learned about what they represent and how they got their names. At the end of the assembly we watched a video about some of the athletes that will be representing our country in the 2012 Olympic games.
