The Reception classes enjoyed a fun filled day on Wednesday 22 January, they were palaeontologists for the day! They helped the passionate fossil hunters to unearth an array of real dinosaur fossils. They learnt how to walk like dinosaurs, drew dinosaur pictures and were amazed by the dinosaur facts that they were given my Professor Memo! At the end of the workshop the children were pleased to be part of the Royal Dinosaur Club.

On 21 November 2024, the Year 3 children visited Colchester Castle, exploring its rich history as both a Roman temple and a Norman fortress. The children learnt about Colchester’s significance as the capital of Roman Britain and its role in mediaeval England. They also viewed well-preserved artifacts, such as Roman pottery and tools. The visit included interactive workshops where the children dressed in period costumes and learnt about ancient weaponry, providing a hands-on experience of life in Roman and mediaeval times.  The children had a fantastic time!
