Olympic Rings

We have been learning about the Olympic flag.  We learnt that the rings are very important.  The colours can be found on flags all around the world.  The 5 rings represent the continents.  The rings link together to show unity and fair play.  We found it difficult to understand unity, so we stood up and linked our arms together like the rings.  We thought about why the different continents would link together.  It looked like we were hugging and that is something that good friends do.  In the end, we decided that unity means it is important to be good friends and to look after one another.
