Our Swans have been learning some new ‘fencing’ skills. Mr Banner taught them ‘en garde’, about footwork, advance, defence and lunge. After having the time to practise these skills, they had the opportunity to ‘teach’ our reception children how to ‘fence’. It was clearly evident they passed on the skills in a clear and informative way. […]

Today the Swans and Owls kiddles went to London for a Roald Dahl experience. First stop was the South Bank Centre to see ‘Wondercrump’, a magical interactive journey revealing the secrets of Dahl’s extraordinary life. With a fair amount of frothbugglingness it was a gloriumptious experience! After a crodscollopping lunch we splatch-winkled over to the Theatre […]
