We have been working all this half-term on the different parts of our rainforest collages and finally we have put them all together!  We are really proud of our final pictures and hope you like them too!

This afternoon, at the end of a very busy week, Year 6 returned to Dorrington Woods to build a camp fire - with a lot of help from Mrs Walsh! She got the fire going so well that we were able to toast marshmallows, which was a new experience for some of us. We also enjoyed biscuits and hot…
