  • More Home Journey News!

    Thu 22 Sep 2016

    What an exciting day our home journey group had today.  They went on the Emirates cable car ride and on to the Nissan innovation experience in the 02.  If this wasn't exciting enough they almost saw Prince William in the Shard as they walked back through the station.  Sadly a lot of much taller people obscured their view, but it was a close thing!!

    Tomorrow they plan to spend the day in a chill out mode, watching films in pyjamas.  After this week's excitement, a calm day is certainly called for!

  • School Journey Day 4

    Thu 22 Sep 2016

    What a beautiful day to spend at the seaside!  It was so clear that even the Isle of Wight was visible.

    Our adventurers have been getting busy learning about the history of Swanage from some rather strange looking characters and Mr Potts and Miss Fitch look like they are being stalked by some ducks!

    Crabbing seemed to be a huge success, with a number of the eight legged wonders ending up in buckets (don't worry they were all returned safely to the water later!).

    Exhausted travellers are now looking forward to the final excitement of the camp fire.

  • Year 6 Home Journey

    Wed 21 Sep 2016

    Although not all of Year 6 have gone to Swanage, the ones who have stayed at school have also been experiencing a whole heap of exciting activities to rival their travelling friends!

    They have been on a fact finding mission in the science museum, completed craft and ipad challenges and today they created their own pizzas at Pizza Express.  Imagine all that - and its only Wednesday!

    Look out for the information about Elfrida that our adventurers found....

    Happy birthday Favour - we hope you are enjoying your day!!

     

  • School Journey Day 2

    Tue 20 Sep 2016

    Everyone slept well on their first night and were up bright an early for a day's walk to Studland.  Only one lunch was lost and luckily Miss Fitch found it! (There was nearly one very hungry Lexie!!)

    The cliffs were amazing, the views spectacular and the space for running was immense!

    Everyone visited the beach again and there was time for some sand sculpting as well.

    They are claiming they are not yet tired, but they are fooling no one!  With more activities to go this evening they will need to find their energy reserves!!

    Continue to look on the Year 6 class pages for more updates.

  • School Journey Day 1

    Mon 19 Sep 2016

    After a slightly longer journey than expected due to some traffic issues, all 28 children and all 3 adults have arrived safely to the Alnatt centre in Swanage.

    Lunch on the journey proved to be a respite from hours of driving and the children enjoyed a picnic which was almost in the sun!

    After dumping their bags in their rooms, they immediately set off for the beach.  It was the first time for some of them and they hugely enjoyed themselves.
