Thank you to The Northmoor Meat Company, who welcomed 8S last week as part of their Post Scholarship Programme. 🐑 The children had a fabulous time learning about regenerative farming principles which have important environmental benefits, including optimising carbon sequestration, nutrient cycling, and increasing biodiversity, to name but a few. They also considered some topical agricultural debates, as well as understanding more about the farm as a business, and the day was topped off with feeding the lambs. What a thought-provoking day (and lots of fun!).

In Art, Year 7 are making freestanding structures. The pupils started by making a 'pinch pot' and then added hand rolled coils the rim, to build up the sides of the pot; if desired, they could alter the shape of the pot at this point. The children were then making 'rolled figures', characters which are attached to the surface of the pot to create a humorous motif.

Last week, we were delighted to welcome twenty pupils and three staff from Gakushuin Primary School in Tokyo. This was their second visit to The Prep and once again it proved to be an enormous success. The Gakushuin pupils treated us to a spectacular assembly, where we learned about the prestigious history of their school, as well as gaining an insight into their daily routines and customs. It was a pleasure to welcome both pupils and staff into our lessons and Middle School pupils were fortunate enough to enjoy a Japanese workshop that included origami, an introduction to Japanese handwriting, games and dress. The Prep is very grateful to the families who so kindly hosted our visitors as well as to the Middle School buddies, who did a wonderful job in making sure that the Gakushuin pupils were able to navigate their way safely and efficiently around school. It was heartening to see so many friendships being made in such a short space of time and we are already looking forward to their visit next year.
