Recent Learning

Year 1 greeted some special guests: bearded dragons, snakes, stick insects... and some super cute bunnies!

Year 1 have been to Dragon School! Just like Zog in their class book, our students learnt how to fly, roar and catch a princess. Then, they watched the Zog film, while enjoying hot chocolate and popcorn. A roar-some day!

Year 1 visited the allotment, where they examined and sketched plants and flowers. And, of course, they enjoyed some delicious fresh apples!
