Squirrel Class Visit the Library

Squirrel class walked to Southampton Library on Thursday 17th May.

We had fruit and milk in the park.

We listened to some stories read by the ladies who work in the children's library. We also learnt about using the library... it is free to join and you can take up to 30 books!

Our favourite part of the trip was when we got to make a boat picture using lots of collage materials, you can see our pictures in the classroom, as our new project is boats!

Year 1 trip to Lymington

To start our new topic on boats, Year 1 took a trip to Lymington in the new forest to see all the different boat in the harbour. Unfortunately it was raining and very cold!
