🌾 Last week in Larch Class, we’ve been learning about the Jewish festival of Sukkot! πŸ›– We discovered why and how Sukkot is celebrated. The children learned that a sukkah must have three walls and a roof made of plants, so we built our very own in class, decorated it, and even enjoyed our snack inside it! πŸ₯–πŸŽ #PrimaryEducation #RE #Sukkot #HandsOnLearning #LarchClass

What a fantastic final day for Year 5 at Wick Court Farm! πŸ‘πŸŒ²πŸ– We kicked off early feeding the sheep, followed by a trip to the Dell for forest schoolβ€”building dens, making crowns, and learning fire-starting skills!πŸ”₯πŸ‘‘ Herding the pigs into the weighing crate was definitely harder than it looked, but getting time with the weaners made up for it! 🐷 We enjoyed a "wild" lunch of homemade sausage rolls in the roundhouse, then rounded off the day with a group walk around the farm perimeter with Farmer Stuart. 🌾 We’re wrapping up a brilliant trip with hot chocolate and a chilled evening... aiming for an early night! β˜•πŸ˜΄βœ¨ #WickCourtFarm #SchoolTrip #Year5 #OutdoorLearning #FarmLife #ForestSchool
