The Pre-Reception boys may have only just started at St Ed's, but they are all enjoying the activities Mrs B gives them to do at home. Fantastic work boys!

Year 2 visited Pangbourne Woods. They made stick frames which helped them to focus when exploring. With eyes drawn more closely to the area they were investigating, small details were much easier to isolate and they saw some very interesting natural phenomena!

There has been so much excitement at St Ed's this week for our Flight theme STEAMED activities. We started in style with the arrival of a flight simulator in the form of a tiny plane. The boys had a fabulous day learning to fly and constructing model aircraft. There were more future pilots in the making when Pre-Prep visited the Berkshire Museum of Aviation on Wednesday.

The Little Griffins enjoyed learning about the Battle of Britain, which is the most fun if you re-enact it!

On Tuesday morning, Reception parents visited the classroom to join the boys enjoyment of STEAMED week. They helped their sons with a variety of different flight related design technology activities. The morning ended with everyone having a lovely aeroplane biscuit made by the kitchen staff.
