Year 1 Minet Country Park
Mon 19 Oct 2026Year 1 had a fantastic visit to Minet Country Park as part of their Geography learning. During the trip, the children explored the park and learnt about the difference between human and physical features, identifying examples of both in the local environment. They also took on the role of young geographers by investigating whether there were enough signposts around the park to help visitors find their way. The children enjoyed observing the natural surroundings, discussing their findings and working together throughout the day.

Fri 16 Oct 2026What an exciting experience for our Reception children! As part of our People Who Help Us topic, we were very lucky to welcome the police to our school. The children were excited to meet the officers and learn all about how they help to keep us safe. They enjoyed asking questions, finding out about the police's role in the community and seeing some of the equipment they use. It was a fantastic opportunity for the children to bring their learning to life and they were full of excitement and enthusiasm throughout the visit. We are sure this will be an experience they will remember for a long time!

During the visit, they discovered the key features of a mosque, including the prayer hall, prayer mats, mihrab, and minbar.

Pantosaurus
Wed 14 Oct 2026Pantosaurus visited Minet Nursery and Infant school today!
The children met Pantosaurus in assembly and he then joined the children for playtime. Pantosaurus started a conversation with the children today about your pants covering up your private parts. We listened to his song and learnt that if anyone asks to see what is in your pants you say 'no' and tell a safe adult. The children really enjoyed meeting Pantosaurus and this supported the important message that he is sharing.
