Spectacular Spitfires!

Did you know that the first Spitfire made its maiden flight from Eastleigh, and that Spitfires came in all colours- even pink? Well Year 3 do now!!

Yesterday Year 3 children stared their exciting Spitfire project with local artists Wooden Tiger. Not only did they make and paint their own Spitfires, but they learnt lots of interesting facts about one of the most famous aircraft of our time!! This then inspired them to write some brilliant acrostic poetry!!



Later the children will be using their planes as a stimulus for some creative story writing, and sharing their stories with others in our new outdoor story garden.
