Memorable experiences are so important to our children & we want them to develop in areas which enrich the curriculum they experience in our school.
Each year group has 5 things to do which are experiences they will encounter across that year. They are not linked to the national curriculum they are ‘childhood activities’ which we feel every child should have the opportunity to experience before they leave primary school.
This is what our children have to look forwards to –
