PUPILS welcomed a teacher from their twin Kenyan school this week. The Cathedral School invited Pauline Njeru from St Peter's Embu, to strengthen international links and teaching about global issues.
The teachers and children have been working with St Peter's in Kenya to learn how to become responsible global citizens and to develop skills to work in a global economy.
The two schools have worked simultaneously on a project focussed on food, looking at food production, where food comes from and what we eat.
The two schools have done the same tasks then swapped information so that the children can compare and learn from each other.
In Chelmsford the children have had to be very creative to find enough growing room to plant their food. The result has been a range of unusual pots and planters including wellington boots and bin bags.
Pauline Njeru from St Peter's has been in Chelmsford to learn more about the project's progress and to work with the children at the Cathedral School.
Claire Nokes a teacher from The Cathedral School will be travelling to Kenya for an exchange visit later in the year.
