• Falconry UK visit

  Wed 28 Apr 2021

  This week, Year 1 to Year 6 had an exciting visitor—Falconry UK!  The children got to meet six types of bird, including a Kookaburra and a Tawny frogmouth owl, and learn all about their differences. For example, how they hunt, i.e. with their talons or beaks, or whether they are nocturnal or diurnal. At the end of the session, the children met a Verreaux's eagle-owl, the third largest owl in the world and largest African owl! Some of the children and staff even had a close encounter…!

  We have been using some really exciting equipment in school this week. Now Press Play is an immersive educational resource that brings the curriculum to life! The children wear wireless headphones and are immersed in an experience through sound; becoming the main character in a story, meeting people, discovering places and solving problems.

   

  Our classes have been thoroughly enjoying these experiences - take a look at some of our pictures!
