Pandas at Stourhead

This week we went to explore Stourhead. We had an amazing time walking through the trees and looking at all the different leaf colours. We had time to collect the leaves, conkers, husks and twigs to then create some of our own Land Art inspired by Andy Goldsworthy. We thought carefully about the pattern and shapes to create and how we could add colour to create a visual impact. We really enjoyed doing this and created some amazing pieces of art.

We also got to walk around the house and look at some paintings on the walls. There were lots of portraits and we talked about how these were a different form of art to the sculptures we had created in the garden. The house also had some small sculptures made out of marble that we could look at but not touch!!

The children were all really well behaved on the trip and made our school proud. Thank you to our volunteers that helped us too, we hope you had a lovely day!

In school we have been learning to add numbers together and notice fact families in numbers. Recognising we can write 3+4=7  or 4+3 = 7  or 7=3+4  and 7=4+3.

Thank you also for the cake donations, the cake sale was a big success!

Have a wonderful weekend!
