Mrs Ruth O’Sullivan spoke to pupils about an inspiring woman, called Misty Copeland, who has become the first ever African-American Principal ballet dancer. Her message was looking at how it is possible to make a change and achieve great things.
Year 5 had a fantastic day out at Ashburnham Place, enjoying a range of outdoor activities and learning experiences in a beautiful natural setting.
The day began with apple juice pressing, where pupils collected apples and used a traditional press to make their own delicious juice. They also took part in a fun woodland cooking session, making flatbreads and beetroot hummus – with many surprised at how tasty it was!
Another highlight was exploring woodland ecology, where children learned about the importance of biodiversity through looking at how the gall wasp affects the genetic makeup of an acorn. The session helped them understand how everything in nature is connected.
Throughout the trip, Year 5 showed great enthusiasm, teamwork, and curiosity. They represented the school brilliantly and came away with new skills and a deeper appreciation for the natural world.
