  This morning our Year 3 and 4 classes had an exciting opportunity to take part in the Big Sing, an event organised by Severn Arts and the University of Worcester. The event took place at the University of Worcester Arena and the children have been busy practising the songs at school ready to take part in the performance with pupils from across Worcestershire.

• Year 2 Trip to Barry Island

  Mon 13 Jun 2022

  As part of their new topic on Human and Physical geography, Year 2 took a trip to Barry Island. It was the perfect experience to begin to make comparisons between our local Pershore geography; to see how human and physical features can interact / affect one another as well as forming the basis for some 5 senses beach poetry! It was also an amazing opportunity for those children that had never experienced going to a beach to do so!

   

  Please have a look at their class page to see some photos of their activities.

We also discussed the importance of staying safe around water.
