Today we were extremely lucky to have Luke Frewin visit our school, to host an assembly for all year groups! Luke is an ex-student of Whybridge Junior School and is now a successful Registered Veterinary Nurse (RVN). The children found it fascinating and loved asking questions! https://t.co/1BynRHpDKO

Year 3 went on an amazing trip to Valence House before half term! We looked at animal skins they would have used and worn during the stone age. We tried to grind up some grains to make food and investigated a fascinating Stone Age burial. We had a fantastic day! https://t.co/GAjJqNpGiT
