An exciting event in Gloucester this weekend!

🌊🏖️ As part of our Geography topic on human and physical features, Year 3 had an amazing trip to Weston Beach!

🗺️ We explored the coastline, identifying natural features such as the 🏖️ sand and 🌊 sea, alongside human-made features like the promenade and nearby facilities.

🎉 There was plenty of fun to be had too! The children worked together to build impressive and castles, buried each other in the sand to create 'sandmaids', and enjoyed swimming in the sea 🏊‍♀️.

🍦🍟 We topped off the day with delicious ice creams and chips before heading to the 🎮 arcade, where everyone had lots of fun trying the games and winning plenty of tickets! 🎟️

It was a wonderful day of learning, laughter and making special memories. Well done, Year 3, for representing our school so brilliantly! ⭐👏

What's on in the holidays?

We have been sent info on lots of events that may be of interest to our parents over the summer break 😁
