SUMMER TERM LEARNING 2023

Thursday 20th April 2023 

Today we were joined by Taylor Wimpey for a session on who they are, what careers they offer across the company and how they are promoting sustainability. We used our teamwork skills to put together bug hotels and decorate them. The children were a credit to Great Bentley and their fantastic behaviour and positive attitude to learning was recognised by our visitors.

Tuesday 18th April 2023 - Today we learnt about how magnets attract and repel each other and tested this using bar magnets.
