Year 4 had a brilliant day at Wellington Community Farm, learning how vegetables are grown, bug hunting and even finding out about the different types of soil and how it affects the growth. Thank you to all the wonderful volunteers down there which made this trip happen!

On Thursday, Year 4 had their ukulele performance to all the parents. Safe to say, they played amazingly!

Reception had a fantastic day at Somerset Museum. The children found out about different types of castles and how they were protected by features such as a moat. We found out about life in the castle that is now Somerset Museum. We looked at armour and other historical artefacts and played a 'Guess What's In The Box' game. The children did castle crafts- making a shield with their own crest on it and also dressed up as knights and royalty in the role play area. We went on a tour of the castle to find out about the history of the castle and spotted features like the gates, turrets and the wall around the outside. The children behaved beautifully, and a member of the public commented that they are a credit to their school! 😊💙🧡

Another brilliant job opportunity at Wellesley Park Primary School. Come and join our fantastic team! 😊😀

Happy 1st June everyone!!
