Today, our fantastic catering team flew pupils off on an inter-galactic journey, with a space-themed school lunch. Pupils chose from Flying Saucer Burgers or Cheese and Onion Galaxy Swirls, served with Alien Wedges and Dazzling Sweetcorn Stars. The service counter was decorated and our team got into the spirit of it all too, as you can see! 

On Wednesday 15^th May Farms2Ewe brought in their animals to see Reception and Nursery. We were lucky to meet a calf, goats, pony, ducks, chicks, guinea pigs, lambs and even a mouse. During their visit we were able to touch, stroke, feed and hold the animals, learning about how they live from the farmers who brought them. It was lots of fun! 

On Tuesday morning there were 56 very excited year 1 children and some equally excited adults who were off on an adventure for their first ever school trip!  

After a fun coach ride to Whipsnade Zoo we left the coach and went off to see the elephants.  We looked at some examples of elephant teeth and, using our science knowledge, were able to work out that they were herbivores because of the large flat surfaces. We then went for a walk around the tiger enclosure and were very excited to see a tiger leap onto its look out post! 

We moved onto the aquarium and butterfly house where we saw a variety of different reptiles and amphibians, as well as some beautifully coloured butterflies.  Then it was time for lunch before we boarded the Whipsnade Express.  The steam train took us on a tour around the zoo and we spotted antelope, more elephants, wallabies and camels.  We were delighted to see the baby camel that was less than a month old!

After the train we made our way towards Africa where we got to see lots of the African animals that we have learnt about in Geography. It was amazing to see the tall giraffes, the large tough-skinned rhinos and the sleepy cheetahs! 

It was a very enjoyable day and we were all very glad that the rain stayed away!

The Eco warriors have been busy this past week weeding the planters and repurposing some plastic containers as new planters. Today Year 5 Eco warriors planted some rainbow chard and spinach! We're looking forward to watching it grow and hopefully tasting some of our own produce!
