    Roman Trip to Fishbourne Palace

    Year 4 had a fantastic trip to Fishbourne Palace on Monday. 

    The class explored the Palace grounds and were fascinated by the ruins of the old building and by trying to imagine how grand the building might once have been. They explored the 2000 year old mosaic floors and engaged in a brilliant Roman workshop with the museum staff. 

    Thank you to our our parent helpers.

    DT Making Carousels

    Our DT this half term has been a construction project to build a working carousel. We used a range of different techniques and had to create our own carousel theme.

    Thank you to parents and families who came to have a quick look after school on the last day of term!

    Author Visit - AF Steadman

    Year 4,5 &6 had a fantastic afternoon today listening to and joining in with the author AF Steadman who came to Winterbourne for the afternoon. It was a fantastic opportunity for the children to engage with an author and provided plenty of inspiration to get reading!(and writing!). 

    I hope you have begun to share the stories at home too.

    The Y4 Tri-Golfers had a great time at their competition on Wednesday morning. They played fantastically well and tried their best to earn points for team Winterbourne. 

    Thank you to Mr Dillon for volunteering to attend!
