YEAR 1 HAMPTON COURT
Thursday 3rd July 25
To support our learning on Henry VIII and the Tudors we have arranged a fantastic trip to Hampton Court Palace. On this trip, the children will have the chance to explore the castle and see how the tudors lived as well as taking part in a workshop about how the tudors were entertained.
We will be travelling there by a hired coach leaving school at 9:00 am and arriving back in time for normal pick up arrangements. The children should wear school uniform as usual, however as there will be some walking involved throughout the day, they will be allowed to wear trainers/comfortable shoes. They should also wear weather appropriate attire (i.e. raincoats if rain is forecast, sun hats, sun cream if the weather is looking hot).
Lunch will be eaten at the venue, please can you provide your child with a packed lunch.
We would highly recommend the children bring a small rucksack to carry their lunch as well as a refillable water bottle. Please do not send your child with a large lunchbox or bag as they will have to carry it.
This trip will cost £21 (to cover trip and coach) and payment should be made via Arbor/activities/trips by Friday 20th June.
YEAR 1 TOMS TALKING REPTILES WORKSHOP
Friday 28th February
As part of our Science learning about the classification of animals, Year 1 children have an exciting opportunity to be visited by Tom’s Talking Reptiles https://www.tomstalkingreptiles.co.uk/ on Friday 28th February The children will be offered a ‘hands on’ experience with reptiles, frogs and minibeasts. We hope to bring the photos that we have been showing them to life enabling them to see for themselves some of these amazing creatures, many of which are now endangered.
