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. ![]()

Miss Beth’s 5k December challenge
Posted: 16th December 2020
One of our wonderful teachers, Miss Beth, is doing a running challenge throughout December to raise money for the charity Glass Door (https://www.glassdoor.org.uk/), which partners with churches to help the homeless. She is aiming to run 5k every day for the whole month. She even got the children involved, and they ran 2k with her during PE (1k with Y3, 1k with Y4). They did a brilliant job – very few complaints apparently. The JustGiving link is: https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/beth-upton2. Any donations will be very gratefully received. Go Miss Beth!
