Year 4 had an amazing school trip to the Natural History Museum. When we arrived, we went to the ‘Emergency! Earthquakes and volcanoes’ workshop. The scientists had gone missing so Year 4 heroically stepped in to save Volcano Town from certain doom. However, we also wrecked part of it to see how a seismometer works. Destruction in the name of science! We also experienced an earthquake, rode an escalator through the centre of the Earth, learned even more about the different types of volcanoes and actively learned using as many of the interactive displays as possible. ![]()

Year 6 try Cornhole
Posted: 3rd December 2020
Originating in the US, this game is a cross between boules and quoits and consists of trying to throw a bag of corn kernels through a hole on a raised board. All you need is a steady hand and nerves of steel. Year 6 had a go yesterday and we see an inter-house league coming up. Just watch out for ‘cornfusion’ (when players or teams can’t agree on the score of a particular inning).
