Today Year 5 went to The Boat Show to take a look at the different boats. The Boat Show is part of Southampton's culture but also links in nicely with our current Titanic topic, allowing us to look at different types of boats and how they have changed.
We were very lucky with the weather, with clear blue skies and sunshine! Some of the day's activities were: a look around a pirate ship, a tall ship, a police boat and a Sunseeker cruiser. We also learnt about safety at sea with RNLI and looked at modern life rafts. This year there was also an Aquarium with a 'The Science of Coral Fluorescence' exhibition for us to look around. We also managed to get afloat on a canoe ride.
What an action packed fun day!
