Our visit to Ponty Park

Today we visited Ponty Park and measured the width of the trees to find out how old they are. We also had some exercise in the playground. Back in school we used the leaves we collected to make some art work.

Afternoon Tea

As part of our Fair Trade topic we are having an 'Afternoon Tea Party' on Monday 3rd April. The children will be able to sample a selection of Fair Trade food.

We would like the children to dress in their 'best' clothes to add to the occasion.

Our trip to the Historical Centre

In October we went to the Historical Centre to look at the exhibits from Roman Times. We were able to experience how the Romans sent messages to each other, how they could get water from the ground by using the Archimedes Screw, creating mosaics and using stretchers amongst other things. We had a fantastic afternoon and learnt a lot of things. We found that sending messages was a very long task to complete and we are thankful for our phones and computers! Take a look at our photos and see how much fun we had!

Our Lifeboat Station Trip

As part of our topic on Superheroes we all went on a visit to Barry Lifeboat Station. We heard about the history of the RNLI. We were able to look at the clothing the lifeboat men wear and both staff and pupils were given the opportunity to dress up in the clothing.  We also learned about keeping safe on the beach and in the sea. As it was a dry day we went to Barry Island to eat our lunch and play on the beach. Thank you to all the parents for their donation included in the cost of the trip and Barry lifeboat station received a cheque for £80. We have received a letter from them thanking us very much for our generosity.

Bristol Aquarium

Yesterday we went on a trip to Bristol Aquarium as part of our topic 'Under the Sea'. We had a wonderful time looking at all the different types of fish there are. We found out lots of information and were surprised at how big and small some fish are. Take a look at our photos (click on the link) and the information we found out about them below.
