Chris from Starfish Malawi visited Foxes and Owls this week. He thanked us for our recent fundraising efforts and spent time discussing the charity further. The children were captivated by Chris’s stories about the school in Malawi. Foxes learnt the starfish Malawi song and were reminded about where the idea of the name starfish comes from. We looked at where Malawi is on the globe. We discussed why it is so much warmer there than Britain. It was noticed that Malawi is close to The Equator. The children were then able to link this to their previous learning about The Amazon Rainforest.”
