Year 3 stepped back in time for their World War II day, with our forest school providing the perfect setting for shelter building.
From Spitfire drawings to D-Day medal designs, the students emerged themselves in wartime themed activities for the day.

Liv E’s fundraising started back in May when she set herself the challenge of cycling 50 miles in support of The Polycystic Kidney Disease Charity. Her first attempt saw her face the disappointment of mechanical issues at mile 19, meaning she couldn’t complete the challenge on that occasion.
But…this weekend saw her start the 50 miles again and complete it in 5hrs and 26 minutes! 🚴♀️
A huge well done to Liv for your determination and perserverence for something that means so much to you. We are very proud.
If you would like to support Liv and the charity, please find a link to her page in our stories or bio. Thank you.

🌍🇭🇷 Croatia Trip Highlights 🇭🇷🌍
What an unforgettable adventure! Our Croatia trip was full of adventure, nature, and fun!
🌊 Day 1 kicked off with a visit to the stunning village of Rastoke, with its 23 waterfalls – pure magic. After a hearty meal and some evening games, we wrapped up a perfect first day.
🏞️ Day 2 was spent exploring the breathtaking Plitvice National Park. We hiked 5 miles around crystal-clear lakes, each view more picturesque than the last.
🏰 Day 3 saw us exploring a medieval fortress in Senj, followed by a boat trip to Klimno on the island opposite, where we cooled off with a swim in the calm, turquoise water.
🐟 Day 4 took us into the world of marine biology! We watched experts collect and test sea water, then dissected mini sharks – a real discovery moment! Of course, we ended the day with another refreshing swim.
🚣♀️ Day 5 began with kayaking and snorkeling in a small bay, surrounded by fish. After a quick visit to Sibenik and a delicious burger, we headed south.
🦅 Day 6 brought us to Vransko Lake for some birdwatching, where we spotted purple herons and pygmy cormorants. Our last stop was the beautiful town of Dubrovnik, with time for pizza before heading to our final accommodation.
Huge thanks to our incredible tour guide and @flooglebinderuk hosts for their fantastic support throughout.
