Year 4 enjoyed welcoming all the visitors to the Prep School today and demonstrating their knowledge of rivers. But was the focus really on rivers or learning how to adapt and deal with change and possibly failure when their designs didn’t work? #Theadventureawaits

Spring has sprung and Year 4 are taking advantage of the outdoor classroom. Where will our learning take us next in our 87-acre campus?

We are very excited to be at the semi-finals of the Suffolk Farming School of the Year competition today with our cow made entirely from recycled materials.

Year 4 are investigating artefacts in Ipswich Museum. What will they find...

Year 4 are having a fantastic time at Ipswich Museum for finishing off their Exciting Egyptian topic. Can you put dates to their human timeline?

Year 3 and 4 are out and about at the Ipswich Community Garden as part of their ‘Journeys’ theme for Science Week.

The Prep School Spring Showcase is underway in the theatre. An opportunity for the pupils to show their talents to their parents.

Year 4 entered the Premier League Primary Stars Poetry writing competition earlier this year. As we were one of the first 1000 schools to enter we have been rewarded with a bag of poetry books. Well done Prep School!

The Year 4 parents and pupils had a fantastic morning making pharaoh masks. They were joined by Mrs Finch, who starts as Head of Prep next term.

Year 4 are bringing the digestive system alive in Science today. Some fantastically creative ideas!

Year 4 library time. “The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you’ll go.” – Dr. Seuss

A fun day in Year 4 as we welcomed our Open Day visitors. But can we design an Ancient Egyptian egg timer, for Mr G’s boiled egg, only using water and our problem solving skills?

Year 4 Egyptian art in the making. Opulence and imagination are the keywords for this Friday afternoon.

The Prep School are enjoying their Christmas lunch. Our thanks to Wayne and his catering team for 5 star service throughout the year.

The Prep School are all looking forward to their well-earned trip to see ‘Nativity Rocks’ at the cinema tomorrow.

Rehearsals are complete. Prizes are set up. It must nearly be time for our Prep Young Musician and Prep Vocal Championships! We look forward to welcoming all performers and supporters this afternoon starting at 1:30pm.

So what is happening in the Prep School this morning? Is it a new art installation or...guesses below please...

Woodland Pre Prep have been decorating the church for our Harvest Festival today.
