Science Update – Rocks
We have concluded our topic on Rocks, and the children have not only learned so much but have also really enjoyed exploring this subject. They went on an exciting rock hunt in the playground, observing and trying to identify the different types of rocks they found. It has been wonderful to see their curiosity and enthusiasm as they put their knowledge into practice!

Self-Portraits
This morning, led by Sarah Lorrimer-Riley, the children explored self-portraits, creating a collaborative art installation that showcases their creativity around the school. It has been a truly enjoyable experience for everyone, and we would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to Sarah for such a wonderful session!
