We had fun in forest school making dens. We worked together as a team and added leaves and sticks to make them even better!

We used our investigative skills to find and sort leaves according to their properties. We learnt about the different parts of a leave including the margin, blade, stalk and veins. We also found out about different types of leaves such as palmate, simple, compound and lobe.
We have been learning about Victorians. The children went to St John’s museum in Warwick and experienced what it would have been like to be a child in Victorian Britain. We even made our own butter and lemonade!
We had fun toasting marshmallows and eating s’mores. Yum!
Group A and B teamed up today! They brushed up on their orienteering skills in the morning before going on an independent walk in the Welsh countryside. In the afternoon, we made our way to Criccieth beach to look for some shellfish and enjoy an ice cream. We even spotted some dolphins!!
We had an adventurous day in the mine; scrambling up waterfalls, getting a dingy across the submerged lake and enjoying a hot chocolate deep underground. We experienced pitch black which was a first for all of us! Jude showed us how to split slate after we emerged from the mine.
We had fun kayaking this morning and scrambling on the rocks at the beach in the afternoon. The sun shone all day for us too!
In Geography we have been learning about London. They then made comparisons with Kuala Lumpur. The children noticed similarities and differences between the two cities. They saw that both cities had rivers, tall towers and a zoo. They really enjoyed exploring Kuala Lumpur using google earth.
