Our weekly timetable
Thursday 12th January
Canal and River Trust Visit
Claudia and David from the Canal and River Trust visited Year 2 today. They talked about the Rushall canal and then we made seed bombs and bug hotels.
We threw the seed bombs in our wooded area and left the bug hotels in quiet places for the insects to live in.
We cant wait to see what flowers start to grow in the spring!

Shugborough Hall
Year 2 have been learning about maps. So today we went to the beautiful grounds of Shugborough Hall. We started in the walled garden, drawing our own sketch maps and using keys to identity different features. We talked about the different features we saw and then we were able to use compasses. We learned about the four compass points and we found that most of the paths in the garden were aligned to the compass points.
After lunch on the minibus (while it rained) we found the farm and explored some of Shugborough's past and walked to the mansion and back having a fabulous time splashing in the puddles as we went.
Morrells Farm
Year 2 have really enjoyed visiting Morrells Farm in Shropshire. Farmer Derrick and Stephen from the Country Trust, showed us around the farm and we learned about the cows on the farm. We then went for a nature walk across a field where we found mole hills, we also enjoyed the gorgeous views of the Wrekin. After lunch in a barn (and its lovely log burner), we made mince pies and wreaths.
