On Tuesday 17th December, Year 6 had a DT task day.  They were asked to design, plan and prepare a Lord Woolton Pie from WW2 in a group ready for a Victory in Europe Party.  The pie had to celebrate the end of WW2 in some way, but also look appetising and tasty.

All the children worked brilliantly in their small groups, working together using their thrive values.  We were very impressed with the creativity from the children but also their willingness to try the pies at the end of the day.  A lot of the children surprised themselves with how much they enjoyed the pie.  Well done Year 6. 

On the 8th October, Year 6 visited Duxford.

We all had a great time looking at the many planes, including Spitfires and Messerschmitts. 

We also saw Anderson shelters, searchlights, and doodlebug bombs as well as many other things from World War 2.  The children were lucky enough to have a short guide from John around The Battle of Britain hangar. He was a young boy during WW2, and shared some fascinating stories. 

A couple of other highlights from our trip, was a walk on Concorde, and of course the electric bus ride to save our legs!
