National Portrait Gallery Visit - 24th February

Junior 4 girls spent a wonderfully interesting and inspiring day at the National Portrait Gallery on Wednesday 24th February.
They enjoyed seeing portraits of Tudor Monarchs who they had studied in their history lessons. There was also an inspiring talk about Tudor artists. We then had the pleasure of studying six portraits with one of the gallery's guides and learned so much more!
Later the girls had the opportunity to compare modern portraits of our Royal Family with those of the Tudors and to see the latest painting of the Princes William and Harry.
The girls enjoyed this trip very much and returned to school tired but happy.

Infant 1 get switched on to Electricity!

If you were shopping in the local branch of Waitrose on Monday 1st March you may have seen an eager group of girls finding out how electricity helps us do our shopping. They were each able to weigh an apple on the manual scales and then on the electronic version and see if they said the same - and keep both the apple and the sticker ( the important bit when you are five!).
They were shown exciting places that their Mums and Dads never get to see, including the power supply room, the very chilly walk-in fridge and the extremely cold walk-in freezer.
A most enjoyable visit for all and thanks to Waitrose for a well planned session.
