Trip To Conkers

The Year 2 children went on a trip to 'Conkers' as part of their topic on 'Living Things and Variation'. It was a lovely day despite the heavy downpours. Read some of the children's memories of the day.

Pond Dipping

Kirsty
Firstly at Conkers Y2 met one of the staff who showed us how to do pond dipping. A few minutes later we had a go on our own. I thought it was brill. I caught a water spider and a water beetle. But the best thing I caught was the baby fish. It was transparent!

Brandon
The trip was exciting especially the pond dipping.

Matthew
We walked around the lake. We saw the ducks swimming to the island. The island was for the ducks to have a rest on.

Callum
Afterwards we went to a sculpture area where there was lots of sand and logs with little stones to hold the logs up. My groups tower was quite tall.

Musical Interlude

Alice
Afterwards we went to the Labyrinth. We were first to get out of the maze. There were 8 riddles.

Sam
As soon as we got out of the dizzy maze we went to the enchanted forest. It was awesome because there were loads of tunnels and spiders webs. There was even a really, really dark slide where you couldn't see anything when you went down it.

Grace
We were allowed to play in the Enchanted Forest. Lauren and me stuck together because Lauren was scared at first, then she got into it. It was very, very, very funny and great. Next it was lunchtime. I was starving.

Muddy Hands

Lauren
We went to Discovery and the amphitheatre where we had a rain storm. Then we investigated woodland animals homes. We made our mud monsters. It was great.

Natalie
On the way back we looked under the logs on the logpile. We found lots of slugs but Sam found a toad. It was gross. I found an ant......it was boring!

Libby
Soon after we went on the adventure playground. It was very good fun and I nearly fell at the top of the spiders web.

Adventure Playground

Amy
The day was good and it was fun with my friends.

Mikey
At the end of the day we went on the bus. I had a sleep. When I woke up we were nearly there.

Finally home for tea and a good nights sleep!
