We’ve been using digimaps to compare the climate and how it has changed since 1970 in the UK and China. 

Today we have been exploring and making an Anglo Saxon Village.

Some beautiful photos from our performance of A Midsummer Night's Dream at Blackwell, sent by some of the staff. 

Today we used the theory of Aristotle to prove the Earth is spherical.
