This morning, Year 6 have had a fun time lead by Coach Gunn. After dodgeball, tug of war and archery, the Year 6s enjoyed a fabulous cake made by Iain’s mum. Thank you! 
Next came zorbing and nerf wars! The Year 6s are certainly having a busy week!

Year 6 have had a fabulous day in the woods at Humblescough Farm today. Following an all important safety talk, we headed down to the woods, where we based ourselves for the day. We began our activities by fire striking, which for some took a little effort! Building the fire up, took our…

Year 6 had an amazing day at Hothersall Lodge! We began the day on canoes in lovely warm sunshine and enjoyed learning to paddle, to work together and competed in fun canoeing games. After that there was only one thing to do…jump in the lake and cool off! 
After our yummy packed lunches were…

I chose minibeasts for the children to create as they have studied them throughout two of their science topics this year most recently last half term when looking at living things and their habitats.

We did plenty of brilliant activities throughout the day.

On our final week at the curling rink, Upper School enjoyed playing in teams of three against each other. One player was ‘skip’, one was a ‘sweeper’ and one throwing the stones. The success rate was much better this week with many of the children’s shots going into the ‘house’ (target). The…

Mrs Cadwallader brought history to life for us last week by bringing in two photos of herself on holiday at the beach when she was a little girl. I was so impressed by our children’s knowledge as they applied what we had learnt a couple of weeks ago (have a look back here …
