Year 3 had an exciting trip to Whipsnade Zoo this week! 🐧🦁🦎 The visit brought to life their learning about animals and their survival needs as they explored the zoo and met a wide variety of fantastic creatures. From discovering where different animals come from to learning about their diets and habitats, the children were full of curiosity and asked some brilliant questions throughout the day. We are incredibly proud of how well Year 3 represented the school, making the most of every opportunity to learn while being kind and considerate to zoo staff and other visitors.

Year 6 were visited by CAMH this week, completing a transition workshop in support of their mental health and wellbeing before the big change!

Year 3 recently enjoyed an exciting drama workshop where they explored different emotions through role play, building confidence, communication and teamwork skills. 🎭 The session linked brilliantly to their History and English learning, helping pupils develop empathy, understand characters' perspectives and discover how dialogue brings stories to life. It was wonderful to see every child engaged, creative and eager to participate!

Well done to all of our pupils for their hard work and achievements for last Friday 👏 A special congratulations to Elm Class and Hazel Class for their excellent attendance, and to Dragons House for maintaining the lead in both the weekly and termly house point standings! 🏆
