Year 6 had an amazing trip to Bletchley Park, which was once the top-secret home of the World War Two Codebreakers. There, codebreaking machines, such as the Bombes and Colossus, were developed to decipher the Enigma messages used by the Germans. The children were able to take part in working out messages, which were written in Morse Code, and they turned them into letters to intercept where the German military would have been operating!

Year 6 went to Kings Lynn Fire Station as part of the annual Crucial Crew event. Children are taught to stay safe and learn valuable life skills by safety messages delivered in a fun and interactive way through hazards presented in a safe environment. They had talks from the Coastguards, Police, Air Ambulance, Fire Fighters, Norfolk Be Prepared and St John's Ambulance.

Mr Wilkinson brought his sheep in to see us. Each class went out during the day to learn about how they are looked after. The best part was getting to feed the lambs with a bottle of milk!
