London Trip - Day 3

We had a brilliant time at Buckingham Palace watching the changing of the guard. We’re sure the Queen was looking at us from an upstairs window.
Then we visited the Churchill War Rooms. They were underground and Churchill and his War Cabinet made all the decisions about WW2 from inside them. They used used from 1940 until the end of the war.

London - Day 2

We thought the Lion King was brilliant last night. The theatre was massive and we couldn’t believe how good the animal costumes were. The giraffes were people but they had really long legs. We thought it was very dramatic when Scar killed Mufasa because it looked like he really fell into a herd of buffalo. Everyone loved the songs too.

Today we have really enjoyed exploring in the Science Museum. Miss Callaby’s group loved testing out the different experiments. Mrs Meston’s group enjoyed the different slides. Miss Warren learned how a pulley works by moving herself up and down on a chair. Mrs Dunning took lots of photos to use back at school.

We have seen London from above now because we have all been on the London Eye. We loved looking down and spotting the different landmarks we have learned to recognise in this busy city. We can’t wait to tell you about everything we have been doing.

London - Day 1

We arrived in London and drove straight to the River Thames to find the HMS Belfast warship. It was used in WW2 and now it is a museum to show everyone what it was like being a sailor in the war. We went up and down ladders to see the guns, the engine room and loads more. Then we drove to the hotel. It has just been redecorated so our rooms are so smart. We can’t wait to sleep in them! We are looking forward to seeing the Lion King first though. We will let you know what it is like in our next blog.

Nursery Closure 12th December

Mon 04 Nov 2019

Dear Parent/Carer

Nursery Closure

As we are sure you are already aware, MPs have voted for a general election to take place on Thursday 12th December 2019. Beechwood Nursery building will be open to the general public for voting from 7am up to 10pm. We are acutely aware that this will be the third time that our nursery has been used as a polling station this year and that this latest election gives you very little notice. We are acting under instructions from council in this matter and have not volunteered for closure.

In order to safeguard our pupils we have no choice but to close the nursery on this day. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause, but we are sure you will understand that the reason for this closure is beyond our control. The main school will be open as normal.

Yours sincerely

Mrs S Lanforth
