Line of Fire
The children all responded in the way they wanted – a review, pictures, comments on their favourite parts, a diary, a synopsis. They ‘aged’ them using their own invented techniques! I will email further photos

Reasons why you should read Pax
Year 6 Gladiators have come up with reasons why you should read Pax. This poster will be put up in a reading area to persuade others to pick up the book and read it.

27th Nov 2017, 2:18pmSuper idea to create a poster and display it for other children to read. I especially like the idea that 'kindness can happen anywhere in the world' is one of the messages that you took from the book. -
Feeling emotional after reading chapter 1 of Pax!
Today, at Greenways we have started to read Pax. By the end of chapter 1, we were all looking around at each other with a sad expression on our face. After spending some time talking about our own animals, we felt so upset that the fox had been left in the woods!

22nd Nov 2017, 8:42pmHello Greenways Gladiators. I wonder if Pax will be able to cope in the wild? And what will Peter do without his fox? It's certainly a story which starts with lots of problems.23rd Jan 2018, 10:14amHi Greenways Gladiators from Edwards Hall Gladiators. There were some really sad moments in Pax, weren't there. What has been your favourite book so far?23rd Jan 2018, 10:41amBuckle up for a roller-coaster of emotions Greenways. I'm sure you'll support each other through the highs and lows of the beautiful Pax - and I know you'll agree it was worth it when you get to the end. -
