Year 5 visit to the IOD

Last week some of our Year 5 children were lucky enough to visit the IOD (Institute of Directors).

The children were chosen after taking part in a competition when they were in Year 4 about the importance of Bees and the impact they have on our world.

During their time at the IOD they got to find out more and as well as experiencing this amazing place!

Wow Day 2022

The children from Year 1 to Year 6 were 'wow'ed' by our visitor last week.

The African Drumming specialists allowed the children to take part in a workshop and then perform.

The children all thoroughly enjoyed the experience, there are definitely a few budding drummers in the making!
