This Tuesday, Year 4 had a fantastic day stepping back in time and discovering what life was like in Roman Britain! The children took part in a great range of hands on activities. They learnt about the Celts and Druids, met Boudicca, created their own Roman-style graffiti and made a leather amulet to take home. There was also time for a tractor ride, play on the playground and see some friendly animals!

As part of our Black History Month activities, our Pre-Reception children enjoyed an interactive exploration of the wonderful story Handa's Surprise.

The children brought the story to life by smelling, touching and tasting a variety of exotic fruits featured in the book 🍊🍌🍍. They were excited to discover new tastes and textures, sharing their thoughts about their favourites while learning about different cultures and traditions. It was a fantastic sensory experience that encouraged curiosity, discussion and a love of stories, while helping the children learn more about the diverse world around them.
