Year 1 had a visit from Mr Plater from the Dinostar Museum. He brought lots of fossils for the children to look at and hold and he shared some amazing dinosaur facts. The children hunted for fossils like palaeontologists, made rubbings and created their own fossil plaster casts. https://t.co/Qvredxvbbe

Year 2 planted sunflowers today. We made our own plant pots out of cardboard tubes, filled them with compost and used a lollipop stick to make a hole for the seed. We can't wait to see them grow!

Don't forget that this week at Highlees, it is Walk to School Week! Even if you have to come by car, remember you can always park a bit further away than usual and walk the rest, so you can take part. @ElliotFndtn @T_E_F_L_A @HughGreenway @livingstreets https://t.co/5omZa2Gj7O

Year 1 demonstrated so much knowledge about London while exploring our giant model of the city, which the children built this week. We visited famous landmarks and also Pudding Lane from where we re-enacted the Great Fire of London from it's very first spark!  https://t.co/589jeDAC06

Year 3 enjoyed re-enacting Little Red Riding Hood. They now know the story off by heart. Next week, they will be re-writing the tale with their own twist to the ending. @ElliotFndtn @Highlees https://t.co/X1qjVjOZcN
