TRIPS YEAR 4 VISIT UFTON COURT Year 6 enjoyed a chilly trip to Hill End to practise their map skills from this term. After a few warm up games and team building activities, everyone raced off in pairs to complete the whole site orienteering course. It was a great day out and a good test of the pupils’ map reading. The Year 4 pupils enjoyed an exciting trip to Ufton Court, where they explored what everyday life was like during the Tudors. They learned about farming methods, Tudor crime and punishment, and made bow and arrows using natural materials. A great day out for all! Year 5 spent a busy day at the Oxford museums, combining history and science. The morning’s adaptation workshop included looking at a polar bear paw. After lunch in the Pitt Rivers, the Maya were the subject, which included handling authentic artifacts. Both workshops were followed by museum tours The workshop facilitators were excellent, getting the children involved right from the start.
