Year 2 thoroughly enjoyed the hands-on experience of sowing tomato seeds.
The young farmers learnt about where food comes from and how we can grow our own. We look forward to hearing stories of how the children applied their knowledge at home to help the plants grow. Even better, we look forward to hearing that everyone tried their home-grown tomatoes and discovered that nothing tastes more delicious than something you have grown yourself.
The children in Year 1 had the pleasure of meeting the famous explorer Amelia Earhart (at least, they met an actor playing her as Amelia died in 1939!).
‘Amelia’ told the children wonderful stories about exploring and introduced them to many other great explorers.
In a truly interactive workshop the children created boats and sailed them on oceans (in their imaginations!). They even ‘walked on the moon’ too!
Our Year 6 pupils enjoyed the unique experience of staying on a real lightship that is permanently moored at Tollesbury, Essex.
The children appreciated the beautiful wildlife and marshes as well as the huge range of activities: sailing; climbing; archery; team building games; and a day-long expedition.
We hope our Year 6s have many fond memories of their time at Saracens Bell Lane and we’re sure this week with Fellowship Afloat will feature highly on their memory reels.
