Old Moor Wetland Trip

11th Jul 2022

Our fantastic Y1 children had an amazing time on their visit to the Old Moor Wetlands Trust site in the Dearne Valley. 

They all enjoyed being 'plant detectives'; identifying different plants from a chart and describing them to one another. They were able to draw upon their previous learning and existing knowledge about plants and trees.

The children also enjoyed pond dipping as they tried to first catch and then identify pond mini-beasts.

It was a hot day and all the children had a fantastic time!  They behaved wee and were a credit to our school, their parents/carers and themselves. 

A huge thank you to all the parents/carers who accompanied us today! Without you the trip would not have been possible.

A huge thank you also to Mrs Sambrook for organising this important educational visit.
