Polzeath Beach

Classes 1 & 2 enjoyed a visit to Polzeath Beach on 7th May. The
children were able to explore the beach for 'treasures' to make
sculptures in the sand. They also created and recorded 'beach' sounds to use in composing their own music.

Isles of Scilly

Year 5 and 6 pupils were given the opportunity to have a day on the Isles of Scilly. This was an educational trip to learn about the islands and the coast. Year 5 and 6 had read the book ‘Why the Whales Came’ by Michael Morpurgo which is set on the Isles of Scilly. In the story the main characters are Gracie and Daniel so we went round in pairs of Gracie’s and Daniel’s. We went to the pool where they sailed their boats and we did the same. We explored Bryher which is where they lived and visited Samson the cursed island where they got stranded in a terrible fog. We went there to be inspired like Michael Morpurgo was and we travelled around by boat just like they did but our boat had an engine. We saw how the local people travelled about and did the same ourselves. We explored Bryher and Samson and saw all the places Michael Morpurgo said Gracie and Daniel went and they were a lot like he had described in the book. The islands were beautiful and we all learnt a lot of things from the ruined houses and about the tropical plants on Bryher. We had a wonderful time and enjoyed every second of it all.
