Year Three - Written work on display

As promised, we have put some of children's written work about their "Class Adventure to Upwey, Portesham and Abbotsbury" on display outside the school hall.
All of the children in the class have done a report in their Written Work book, but I have selected some children's work to be photocopied and put on the display board.
Please do come to take a look at this work to find out more about our class trip - and to see the hard-work the children are putting into their writing.

Year 3 - Successful Trips to find out about local rocks and the Abbotsbury Railway

The children in Year 3 enjoyed their trips out on Monday and Friday when we found out about local rocks and the Abbotsbury Railway. We went to lots of different places of interest over the course of the day. For more information, we intend to put a display of the children's work. (I'll let you know when that is ready.)
Our sincere thanks to the parents who came along to help out on the two days. I hope you enjoyed yourselves too. A special "Thank you" for Odette's Dad, Thomas, for driving today.

The children were able to compare some old photographs taken of the Abbotsbury Railway with what is there today.

Our last stop was at Hardy's Monument (made from stone from Portesham Quarry - where we had our picnic).
