🚜 Yesterday, our Reception children took on their biggest adventure yet with a trip to Manor Farm in Southampton, including an hour-long coach journey!
For many, this was a brand-new experience and they showed incredible courage from the moment they stepped onto the coach.
At …the farm, the children fed pigs and chickens, met guinea pigs up close and learned all about caring for animals. They even stepped into the role of farmers for the afternoon, and for a few hours Manor Farm had some very enthusiastic new farmers on its hands!
The children represented the school brilliantly and we couldn't be prouder of them. Judging by the naps on the way home, they had a fantastic time!

Through self-portraits and careful observation, our Year 6 pupils explored the features that make them unique!
It was an opportunity to reflect on personal identity and express their authentic selves by noticing the details that make them recognisably themselves.
They were …encouraged to see their individuality as something to be valued and celebrated, knowing that each person brings something distinctive to the world around them. 🌍

What could possibly go wrong wearing cricket whites to a science lesson?
Armed with measuring cylinders and a healthy dose of curiosity, our Year 6 pupils explored what happens when liquids of different densities meet.
Like all good scientists, they were willing to take a risk, …knowing that the outcome might not be exactly what they expected, but that is often where the most interesting discoveries begin.
Fortunately, the cricket whites made it through the lesson unscathed! 🏏🧪

Year 3 headed out on an orienteering expedition around Queen Elizabeth Country Park and quickly discovered that finding your way around isn't quite as easy when you can't ask your phone for directions!
Armed with an ordnance survey map, the children had to work out which paths to… take, decipher unfamiliar symbols and decide whether that tempting-looking shortcut through the forest was actually a good idea. The children showed great teamwork throughout, helping one another navigate the course and overcome the challenges they encountered.
The adventure continued after lunch as the children brought their Science learning to life through a range of hands-on seed dispersal activities.
A day of exploration, decision-making and learning that sometimes the best route forward isn't always the most obvious one.🌲🧭

Rain certainly didn't dampen the enthusiasm during Year 8 Scholars' Week!
Despite the downpours, pupils embraced the week's adventures with curiosity and enthusiasm. From exploring the mosaics at Bignor Roman Villa to touring Oxford's historic colleges, visiting a …familiar Harry Potter filming location, and even taking to the waves at Hayling Island, there was plenty to discover along the way.
The week also included a fantastic performance of "Frankie Goes to Bollywood", which had everyone captivated from start to finish.
And what better way to end the week than with an ice cream before heading home?
