Kingswood Day 5

Breakfast, stripping beds, orienteering, team games and lunch were what went down today, before we boarded the coach and made our way back to Potters Bar. It has been a fantastic week: the sun has shone, children have challenged their fears, friendships have been strengthened, and everlasting memories have been made. Well done for the […]

Year 2 Blog Week 35

Kingswood Day 1

We’ve arrived! We had a smooth journey up the country and have been enjoying the sun since we got here. Upon arrival, the children had fun on the field playing football and volleyball with beautiful sea views! Then came the first test: making their beds. Let’s just say they need a lot more practice before […]

Worms!

To take a closer look at these little wiggly creatures, the children have been making wormeries, digging around […]
