A wonderful week has been had by all year 5 pupils on our residential trip to The Sustainability Centre. The children were exceptionally well-behaved and fully engaged with all tasks.\u00a0They experienced a range of eco-friendly activities including;\u00a0clay oven building, den creation, a night walk, a local farm visit, fire-building demonstrations and an\u00a0eco-exploration of the site. The centre even linked some of their activities to our WWII topic, informing children about the history of the site which was a Naval communications building during the Second World War. A talk from one of the rangers gave children a chance to explore a wide variety of World War 2 artefacts and dance along to some jive music played on an original\u00a0gramophone. The second night saw us all huddle around an open camp-fire where teachers were entertained with ‘jokes’, singing and dancing.<\/p>\n
Thank you to all of the children for being excellent ambassadors for St Peter’s and for their curiosity and collaboration throughout their visit.<\/p>\n
Next Friday during out celebration assembly, Year 5 will get the chance to talk about their experience with the rest of the school.<\/p>\n
Photos to follow early next week – after we have caught up on some much needed sleep!<\/p>\n
Have a restful weekend!<\/p>\n
