PP1 Trip to Moyse’s Hall Last Wednesday PP1 visited Moyse’s Hall Museum in Bury St Edmunds. All the children enjoyed learning about a Victorian wash day and had the opportunity to try using a dolly, a plunger and a slug iron! Everyone enjoyed looking at the different exhibits in the museum including a penny farthing bicycle and a very old doll’s house complete with miniature furniture. The pupils behaved beautifully and had fun getting involved with all the activities.

Nursery Star of the Week:
Last week we focused on the story of the Three Little Pigs and discussed the materials they used to build their houses and then we made our own.
We also enjoyed our first French lesson with Mrs MacKenzie on Friday morning.
Sam Cobbold for fantastic pencil grip and good pencil control.
Steel Pan Band Workshop A flavour of the Caribbean came to Culford on Wednesday when all the children from Nursery up to Upper 1 experienced the delightful sounds of steel pans and then had the opportunity to play them. Everyone had a wonderful day!
