An exciting adventure lies ahead for year 5 & 6 in the medieval Woodlands of ‘Puzzlewood’ . If you go down to the woods today … who do you think we will see ? #AuthenticExperiences linked to film and literacy

Exploring the secrets of medieval Puzzlewood has been fascinating. The rock and 🌳 tree formations are a complete wonder 💭. The magic of the forest has triggered our imaginations just like in one of our class texts , The Night Gardener EAS Language, Literacy & Communication

Wow - look at these!!!

Dosbarth Wrens loved the ‘Marvellous Minibeasts’ workshop this morning from Welsh Water, learning about the different minibeasts we can find in our ponds! One of our classmates also brought in a shed dragonfly’s skin which developed our curiosity even more!🪳🧐

Aren’t these drawings incredible?!

More play areas across the city have been refurbished thanks to our play area improvement programme. This week, local school children went along to the play areas at Tone Close in Bettws and Morgraig Avenue in Duffryn to see the improvements and try out the new equipment!
