It has been a busy international journey at Crook Primary this year.

Christmas was made more special by exchanging decorations with schools in Europe.

We have worked closely with our partners in Botswana, Indian, Zimbabwe and Tanzania continuing our close links and sharing work on sustainable development goals so that children understand that they can make a difference. This included work on gender equality. In addition, we have taken part in Arabic and Mandarin Challenges , found out about Latin America in our Spanish fiesta and Year 4 entertained us with their African drumming. We were very proud to attend the Commonwealth celebrations in Durham. Recently we are exploring making links in Nepal and Tonga to support our curriculum. We give gratitude and thanks to all our partner schools who have made this journey so rewarding.
