Outstanding Oakstead

Year 4 and 5 have taken part in many exciting acitivities during Oakstead week, including:

• Constructing love bugs using, pebbles, fabric or card.
• Designing candle holders using recycled glass jars and tissue paper.
• Constructing minibeasts with rolled up newspaper.
• Making wool pom pom minibeasts.
• Sketching trees and natural objects.
• We had a visit from Liberty's Owl, Raptor and Reptile Centre where we met a number of interesting creatures!
• We visited Testwood Lakes where we completed 8 challenging Eco tasks. There was a "What can you compost?" game; we had to build a shelter to protect us from a thunderstorm and we each planted a mustard seed. Plus many more!
• Today we are creating posters to recount our trip to Testwood Lakes to show Year 3.
• We are also making bubble and squeak in the kitchen with Mrs Larder.
• In addition, we have two afternoons of TMC sport and team building games to look forward to.
• Tomorrow we hope to take part in an environmental debate!

What a busy week!
