Pre-Prep pupils have enjoyed a whole week of Learning Outside the Classroom, making the most of our wonderful surroundings. Nursery and Reception pupils had a fantastic trip to Wembury beach, and the Pre-Prep dressed in bright colours for Elmer Day to celebrate being different and unique. Here are some of the other highlights for each class:
Nursery
• Collecting pebbles to decorate and hide around the School and challenging Reception class to find them.

• Making their own pitta pizza lunches and banana lollies.
Reception
