Curriculum: Cadbury World

On Thursday 12^th March, Year 3 went to Cadbury World on their school trip. We have been learning all about the rainforests and focusing on The Maya. We started our journey with an educational lesson all about The Maya and why they are so important.

After, we went inside the Cadbury World factory and started our tour in the rainforest. We had great fun looking around and reading all of the important information. We had a great time learning how to write our name in melted chocolate and having a go at tempering it. We enjoyed the rides we went on which took us on a journey of collecting cocoa beans and not to forget the 4D cinema at the end of our day! Thank you Cadbury World for a great day of fun, information and of course, chocolate!

Staying Safe: Reviewing the PANTS Rule

On Friday 13th March, we have been learning about how to keep ourselves safe and understand a very important rule: The PANTS rule.

We had a whole school assembly focusing on how we keep our private parts safe and understanding that they belong to us.

Our PSHE lesson this week has been focusing on discussing sharing secrets that we worry about, understanding our private parts belong to us and who we can discuss things with.
