๐งธ๐ "As part of our History topic, โWhat was childhood like for our grandparents?โ, we welcomed a very special visitor, Ms Jenny, who spoke to us about what school was like when she was a little girl! She also brought along some of her toys from the past for us to explore. It was a fantastic opportunity to hear first-hand about childhood in the past and compare it with our lives today!" ~ Miss Zeenat

๐ฌ๐ "Elder class enjoyed an engaging and interactive Science lesson all about digestion! The pupils explored the digestive system and demonstrated how food travels through the body, passing through organs such as the oesophagus and stomach before nutrients are absorbed and waste is expelled. The class were fascinated by the process and eagerly got involved throughout the lesson, showing lots of enthusiasm and curiosity as they discovered the incredible journey food takes through the human body. What a fun and memorable way to bring Science learning to life!" ~ Mrs Barrett-Simmons

๐ชจ๐ "Our Year 3 Chestnut Class have been doing some fantastic homework as part of our Stone Age History topic! The girls have been incredibly creative, decorating stones and making their own Stone Age-inspired necklaces while thinking about how people may have used the natural materials around them.
As part of their learning, they have also been exploring how and where people lived during the Palaeolithic, Mesolithic and Neolithic periods. It has been wonderful to see them bringing their History learning to life through such imaginative, hands-on homework!
Well done, girls, for your fantastic effort and creativity!" ~ Mr Fagan-Cooper
