Year 5 Dia De Los Muertos Celebration
Date
Mon 02 Nov 2026
Description
Year 5 will be spending the day immersing ourselves in the South American tradition, Día De Los Muertos.
This incredible day will become the hook for our new topic as it will feature heavily in our Year 5 curriculum this half term. During Autumn 2, we will be using our literacy skills to write a poem about this unique day, exploring the origin of the tradition in our Humanities topic – The Ancient Mayans - who were some of the first to Celebrate Dia De Los Muertos, over 3000 years ago and finding more about a Mexican artist Frida Kahlo.
