Pre-Prep

Pre-Prep Spaceship Crash! Year 2 got the academic year off to a flying start with a topic all about space. They came into school and discovered that a spaceship had crash landed on the Pre-Prep playground! They studied the pieces of rubble carefully and enjoyed creating stories about who was on the spaceship and why it had crashed! The children enjoyed developing their research, writing and presentation skills through creating a fact file all about the planets. As part of this topic, we also enjoyed a visit from a Planetarium as well as undertaking activities in the Science lab. In the run-up to Christmas we enjoyed learning about festivals celebrated in different countries and also how Christmas is celebrated around the world.

Gloucester Waterways Museum The Lent term began with a wonderful visit to Gloucester Waterways museum and a visit from the Canal Safety staff. We enjoyed creating our own water cycle experiment and finding out about how we use water at home and school and how we could save water.

Meeting Bubble and Squeak We were invited to the Prep School science labs for some hands on fun and met Bubble and Squeak the school tortoises. During Lockdown we continued our learning with great enthusiasm and enjoyed ‘Fancy Dress Friday’ each week to celebrate the end of each fabulous week of learning! We were so pleased to be able to come back to school for the last two weeks of term where we enjoyed creating and filming videos to celebrate our time in Pre-Prep.
