Last week Year 1 went to Agrilandia Italian Farm. First of all the children got to make their own pizzas, they put on their aprons and hats and had a go at flattening and pushing out the dough. They added their toppings and went off to explore before coming back to eat them for lunch.
After the children had made their pizzas, we went off to explore! They got to feed the alpacas and deer with their vegetables and were very brave! We then went to the vegetable patch and spotted lots of different vegetables being grown along the way.
The children got to pick their own lettuce, eggplant or cucumber and were shown by the farmer how to pull it out. After their exploring it was time to get back and eat their pizzas! It was a great day and the Year 1 children had lots of fun!

Year 4 recently embarked on a thought-provoking unit of work, stepping into the shoes of Rainforest Detectives to solve a serious environmental mystery, in the hope of changing the future of the rainforest.
Storytelling is at the heart of everything we do, and it extends far beyond literacy. It is transdisciplinary, meaning children naturally integrate their knowledge of phonics into storytelling, create maths stories, and weave in elements of science, curiosity, and their understanding of the world.
