• Year One Marwell Visit

  Thu 05 Mar 2015
  Year 1 had a very exciting and interesting educational visit to Marwell Zoo. 

  The children were very enthusiastic and keen to find out more about rainforests. When we went in the tropical world, the children noticed that it was a lot warmer inside than outside. We saw lots of plants with interesting shaped leaves and some even had fruits growing on them. There were also some geckos, tarantulas and dwarf crocodiles to see as well as many ants travelling in tubes from one area to another.

  During the work shop in the Education Centre we saw and handled the skin of many different animals. The children had the opportunity to hold a hissing cockroach, but the high-light was probably seeing and holding a python.

  Some children were very lucky to see a zoo keeper giving medicine to a tiger with a sore paw.

  Thank you to all the adults who supported us on the visit and helped to make the day a success.

  

• Year Two Educational Visits

  Wed 04 Mar 2015
  America Class and Japan Class had a brilliant learning experience visiting Tesco and Southampton Art Gallery this week. In Tesco the children learned about making bread, the huge variety of fresh produce available and where these come from in the world and much more. It was fun tasting different cheeses and fruit. In the Gallery they learned about 2D and 3D flower art work using different media. They also enjoyed creating some plant rubbings and layering these patterns to show texture.
