Week 6
This week in Chaffinch class
This week we have welcomed year 2 back for their last half term in year 2! We have had such a fantastic week with our school trip to London. Firstly I must acknowledge how fantastic the children were. Their behaviour throughout the day was outstanding, they represented Bramber brilliantly! We were very proud of them.
We had lots of fun in London! We had a fantastic coach driver who took us to see the sights! We managed to see The Shard, The monument, we went past the Tower of London and Tower Bridge, around Trafalgar square and past Big Ben. At the museum children got the opportunity to explore how transport changed over time and sat in different forms of transport as we were lead through the workshop. We then had a hunt around the museum for all the stamps leading us to different years and experiences. It was a fantastic day, I hope the children enjoyed it as much as we did!
