Rye Meads Nature Reserve Trip
We had lots of fun on our trip to Rye Meads Nature Reserve. We explored different activities where we searched for minibeasts in their habitats. Looking at both land and pond habitats, we tried log rolling, sweep netting and pond dipping! We found lots of minibeasts, including millipedes, grasshoppers, ramshorn snails and leeches!

D&T day!
Today we had lots of fun exploring engineering and inventing. We had an assembly with Innovation Ben who inspired us to think of problems that we could invent solutions for. We then designed our inventions which will be entered into the 'If you were an engineer what would you do?' competition. In the afternoon we had a go at an egg drop challenge and tried to make towers out of spaghetti and marshmallows.
