We had a creative session using our imagination to think up new lands. We looked at the book 'Weslandia' and also at Martyn's great ideas to give us inspiration. In the book Weslandia, Wesley is a creative boy who spends his life dreaming up new ideas rather than worrying about conforming. His parents worry about him, but he spends the Summer creating a new land, and all his class mates want to join in when they see the great ideas he comes up with.
We thought about what civilisations have (food, language, clothes, games, medicine, shelter etc) and created something for ourselves. Some created a new language using a new alphabet, some created interesting new lands, some invented new food or games.
"The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing. One cannot help but be in awe when he contemplates the mysteries of eternity, of life, of the marvellous structure of reality. It is enough if one tries merely to comprehend a little of this mystery every day." Albert Einstein
