Year 5 blasted us off into space this afternoon. They led us through their science learning about life in space and taught what training was needed to become an astronaut. They wrote and performed a song to help us remember what life onboard a space station is really like. Well done year 5. 🚀

In geography, year 3 looked at the story of chocolate in the Spring term. A wonderful member of staff brought back a cocao bean from Ghana. We felt it, smelt it, opened it and tasted it! We considered it’s journey and we were blown away by its size and the smell. Thank you Florence.
