Year 5 | Trip to Manchester Museum!

by Miss Kenwell

Today Year 5 went on a visit to Manchester Museum.  First we explored the Ancient Egyptian section (linked to our history topic) where we saw a range of different artefacts including a real mummified person! Then we went to the new 'WILD' exhibit (linked to our RE lessons) where the children explored their relationships with the natural world and looked at how people across the globe are creating and repairing connections with nature.

We also explored the 'Living Things' section where the children learned about animal skeletons and got to see some living frogs and lizards.  Finally, we went down to the 'Fossils' exhibition where we learned about dinosaurs and met Stan the T-Rex.

Have a look at our pictures to see some of our favourite finds!

Nursery | Our trip to Old Moat Park

by Ms Kanes

Nursery had a fun filled day of learning at Old Moat Park. We walked there and back. We explored our local area and got to practice our gross motor skills at the park by climbing, swinging, sliding, pushing, and balancing. We also had a teddy bears picnic. It was delicious!
