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. ![]()

A cultural half-term
Posted: 27th May 2021
We love our art teacher Miss Alison’s exhibitions newsletter. Each half-term she tells us about great new exhibitions in London to go and see. In this edition children can choose from Sneakers Unboxed at the Design Museum, the Art of Banksy at 50 Earlham Street and Alice: Curiouser and Curiouser at the V&A, as well as van Gogh at a secret location, Hockney, Yayoi Kusama and Igshaan Adams. This one feels particularly important as so many galleries and museums are now reopening after a very difficult spell and our support would be much appreciated. So dust off your Tube maps and get exploring!
