Butser Farm Visit

 

Some pictures of Skylark's visit to Butser Ancient Farm Museum last week. Children enjoyed the activities and we were so lucky that the sun decided to shine! They were absolutely brilliant on what was for them - their very first school trip!

Kestrels Island Project

The Kestrels who were not at PGL have had a great week designing their own islands; creating environmental agencies to look after them; made badges, sewed flags; created clay versions of a unique animal inhabiting their island; made island mocktails; baked biscuits and created animations to share a conservation message. What a busy and fun week they've had! 

PGL Day 3

It was another great day at Liddington for Year 6 with zip wire, aeroball and climbing wall. There was also some fantastic teamwork in action on Jacob's Ladder. After all that, they still had enough energy to show off their dance moves at the disco! Well done Kestrels!

PGL Day 2

It's been another fun-filled day at PGL for Kestrels. Today they have enjoyed a whole range of activities: the giant swing, sensory trail, crate challenge, trapeze & buggy building. Even the wind and rain couldn't dampen spirits! We are so proud of the positive attitude and determination shown by everyone.
