Erupting volcanoes!

Whilst most of Year 5 were at Osmington Bay, those children that remained in school have had a fantastic two days exploring volcanoes.  They found out how they were formed and then made their very own volcano using a 2l bottle, masking tape and paper mache!  Today they painted them in the design they had researched and finally got to make them erupt using bicarbonate of soda and vinegar...it was messy but great fun!

Osmington Bay Day Three

To start the last day of the children's residential trip, they have been harnessed up and taking part in the 'leap of faith'!  Can you believe how brave some of the children have been?  They had to climb up a narrow wooden pole, stand on the top and jump off with the aim to hit the ball.  What an exciting way to end such a fantastic trip!

Osmington Bay Day Two

Year 5 have had an extremely exciting morning as they have spent the morning in the sea raft building!  The children (and the teaching staff) had to build their own rafts and attempt to sail them.  As you can see the children had so much fun and a lot of them ended up going for a dip in the sea! 

Keep your eyes peeled for an update on their afternoon... hopefully it will be a drier affair!
