YEAR 2 AT COMBE MILL RECEPTION AT COGGES FARM YEAR 1 WENT TO HILL END Year 2 pupils were fascinated by seeing all the old machinery and the forge at Combe Mill near Blenheim. After lunch, they tried traditional crafts to make willow baskets and bird seed fat balls. Year 1 did outdoor team building activities at Hill End, crossing a swamp with planks and tyres, but finishing with a campfire, toasted marshmallows and s’mores. Reception’s first trip was to Cogges Farm, where they followed the story of the ‘Little Red Hen’, collecting eggs, planting corn and baking bread.
