Creating our own logo

London Olympics 2012 Logo

Here are some of our thoughts and ideas:

Olympic Values

We learnt there are five key Olympic Values:

We discussed and pictures to show what we think each value would look like.

We thought about how it would look at the Olympics or how it looks in our own sports or in the classroom.

Olympic Flag

We learnt about the Olympic Flag today.


We learnt that the five rings represent the five continents and how athletes from around the world meet together to celebrate and compete at the Olympic Games. 

Look at this map with the five continents: 


Can you name the different continents?


-Africa
-the Americas
-Asia
-Europe
-Oceania










There are five colours on the flag: blue, gold, black, red and green.

We learnt the colours do not actually match the continents.  But every country at the Olympics uses at least one of these colours on their own flag.


The flag is raised in the Opening Ceremony and will fly during the whole competition.

Term 3

Welcome to Term 3!

We start the term with a countdown to the Olympic Games.

We have looked at some very interesting websites about the Olympics.  We were very interested in the types of sports included!  

If you scroll down, on the right side of the page, you will find a Symbaloo with links to lots of websites about the Olympics.
