It was a hot one last week at Forest School. The group made a brilliant stir fry chopping the veg and preparing egg fried rice from scratch. They even whittled their own chop sticks. 💜💪🍜🔥 #Boom #Skills #LearningOutsideTheClassroom #TheGreatOutdoors

Dosbarth Miss Burgis had a very special visitor today—a lamb! 🐑 We explored farm life and made links to Welsh agriculture, learning how farmers in Wales care for their animals and help produce the food we rely on every day. A fantastic hands-on experience! 🌱🚜 #LearningOutsideTheClassroom

One of the great 'hidden' secrets is our equipment to study the brain. We showcased it in the UEL Psychology Open Lab day. Students experienced EEG, brain stimulation, eye-tracking, VR, and biopacs. Thanks: student demonstrators, technicians, & Elley Wakui! #StudentLed #LearningOutsideTheClassroom

Final River School of the week, one student described it as 'The best Friday EVER!!!'
Days like these create lasting memories, children experience for themselves how special the Kennet is. They also now know lots of different ways they can help it.
