Class 1 - History Trip

On Monday 3rd October, Class One visited the Old Station in Lydford.
 
​The children explored the overgrown train station and platform searching for minibeasts and wildlife.
They drew observational drawings using sticks and mud, played team games with the parachute, and enjoyed exploring the Wonder Woods.
  
The class linked their History learning, studying engineers George Stephenson and Isambard Kingdom Brunel through the exploration of local structures and the remains of a steam railway.
The children’s Art learning was also developed through the close observations of different and local insects as well as the variation of brush strokes needed for their sketches and drawings.
