On Thursday 28th April 2022 we were lucky enough to attend The School Farm and Country Fair at trinity park. This was an exciting day with plenty of activities and learning happening. The children experienced meeting many animals, having a ride on a tractor's trailer, learning about food and how farming works!
On Friday 27th May 2022 we took part in Jubilee celebrations. We learnt dances from the 80s and 90s as part of this. Some teachers also got gunged!
