• Y5&6 Visit Cornhill Farm

  Thu 31 Mar 2022

  The children in Y5/6 spent an afternoon at Cornhill Farm this week. They met Farmer Pete and his wife Jenny. Pete gave the children a tour of the farm and explained what his life as a chicken farmer is like. The children had lots of questions and we are grateful to Pete for giving up his time. The trip has provided plenty of inspiration and the children are going to design their own farms next week.

• Years 3&4 become Volcanologists!

  Fri 11 Mar 2022

  The children in Years 3&4 have worked really hard writing their reports about the tectonic plate activity in Quito, Ecuador, before filming using iPads and a green screen background or an interactive whiteboard. They finished their work by creating some fantastic news reports using iMovie. All of the editing, and making of the films, was undertaken by the children themselves. The films can be found on our Facebook page. We hope you enjoy them as much as we enjoyed creating them!

  

• A Farm Visit by Zoom!

  The children in Y5/6 met Pete the farmer via a zoom call today. He gave them a brief tour of Cornhill Farm, explained what his job entails and showed them around the chicken house. The children had lots of questions for Pete and he answered some, but the rest will have to wait until the class visits to the farm at the end of the month. We are grateful to Pete for giving up some of his day to talk to us.
