Solway Aviation Museum, by Miss Hughes

Date: 21st Mar 2024 @ 8:37pm

Class One and Class Two went to the Solway Aviation Museum in Carlisle today.  This was a nice way for Class 2 to recap on their learning about the history of flight, as well as learning even more about developments in aviation over the last 100 years.  The team were fantastic; so knowledgeable, helpful and super at explaining things in ways that were fun and interesting to our littlest learners! All of the children had a fantastic day and some would even love to return with their families another time!  The volunteers said the children from ABH were superbly behaved and clearly knew lots about flight already - well done Class 1 and 2!

Science Week Fun, by Mr Pugh

We had an incredible Science Week. Class One explored sound, healthy teeth and what we should feed the birds. Class Two drummed and learnt about habitats. Class Three classified animals and learnt all about birds. Class Four looked after Tea Bag Babies, compared heights and shoe sixe, learnt about Charles Darwin and investigated bird's beaks. On Friday we brought in our Science boxes and talked to our classmates about what we had learnt. We were also visited by lots of parents who came to see what we had been doing.

The tickets were drawn out and books and a science set were given as prizes.
