In November 2019 the whole school went on an exciting trip to the Winchester Science Centre and Planetarium.
Here the children were able to get involved in lots of exciting and hands-on activities and experiments (and so were the adults!)

In September 2019 Year 2's topic was all about the 'Unsinkable Titanic'. In order to learn more about this famous ship the children went to the Sea City Museum in Southampton and had 'The Titanic Experience'.
Year 1 Trip to The National Motor Museum in Beaulieu
As part of their Transport Topic the children from Barn and Tawny Owls visited The National Motor Museum in the New Forest.
Here they were able to see cars that were over 100 years old, racing cars, modern cars and some very strange looking cars! They also took a short ride in a vintage open topped car.

School Council visit to The Houses of Parliament
On Wednesday 24th April 2019 the School Council were lucky enough to visit The Houses of Parliament in London.
The children caught the train from Basingstoke to Waterloo along with Mrs James, Mrs Durbajlo, Mrs Gregory and our Chair of Governors, Chris Martin.
Look at the photos they took while they were there......perhaps there is a future Prime Minister amongst them!!!!

Year R Trip to Wellington Country Park
Year R launched their 'On the Farm' topic with a fabulous trip to Wellington Country Park on Friday 1st March.
Whilst there Year R were able to see a small farm and some of the animals that live there including goats, donkeys and guinea pigs (which they got to feed).
They were also lucky enough to go on a 'Dinosaur Trail' which was amazing as Year R had been 'Digging for Dinosaurs' the previous term.
A tiring day was had by all on a day that the weather was kind to them.
Remembrance Sunday
The children have been remembering 100 years since the end of the First World War in 1918. They have been creating 'Poppy Pictures' using a variety of mediums and their results can be seen on display in the Tesco store at Chineham.
