Our cook, Rachel, very kindly […]
On Thursday 20th April, the Owls class attended the Schools’ Farm And Country Show at Trinity Park in Ipswich. We spent the morning looking at a range of farm machinery, where we got the chance to ask the farmer a lot of questions. We even got to ride a tractor around the ground. All the […]

As part of our DT work, the Swans designed and made dairy and nut free ginger biscuits. We based our designs around Easter. We also brought in our Maths work on ratio, as we had to double the quantities given in the recipe. The results were delicious!
