Year 2 on the farm.

David Thomson

Year 1 were not the only group to visit a farm this week. However year 2 were the only group to visit a farm that makes its own ice-cream. They met the cows that produced the milk and tasted the ice-cream for themselves.

Year 3 and 4 visit Hadrian's Wall.

Listening to the Archeologist.

As part of our Roman studies we decided to visit Hadrian's Wall. The children visited a museum to gain some background knowledge and generally 'play soldiers' as we tried on costumes.

In the afternoon we enjoyed a tour of the ruins whilst we listened to an Archeologist.

Year 5 at Whithaugh park.

Everyone.

Louisa Phillips describes the first day at Whithaugh park.....

We arrived at Whithaugh Park. We went straight to the rope park and Steven got me really muddy after five minutes. Mr. Harris and Mr. Fowler picked me up and dunked me in the mud.

For tea we had pasta bolognaise. After tea we went into the hall to watch Shrek. Whithaugh Park totally rocks............10/10.

Typical walk.

During the Easter holidays she ran an activity camp for children in years 4 - 6. Overall 19 children attended the scheme and they had fun trying out sports, games and art activities.
