• Oak Class Victorian Day

  Fri 29 Mar 2019

  Yesterday, Oak Class experienced a really enjoyable and informative Victorian Day at Perlethorpe Outdoor Education Centre. They experienced life as a Victorian child beginning with lessons in the classroom. They learnt how to write on slate and also how to write using a pen dipped in ink. They had a very tricky maths lesson dealing with money in pounds, shillings and pence and then they had playtime with Victorian toys. In the afternoon, they explored the local Victorian church and graveyard.

• It's a Vet's Life for Birch Class

  Fri 22 Mar 2019

  A big thank you to Kryzstof who talked to Birch Class about his life as a vet. He explained how he used his senses to help him investigate sick animals and work out what the problem might be. The children had a go at listening through his stethoscope and they used a machine that detects microchips in dogs. They also tried on theatre gowns, masks and hats and felt like real vets, ready to carry out an operation.
