St John's visit Banks Lane

On Monday 23rd April Year 3 visited Banks Lane as part of our linking schools project. The children did a fantastic job of representing our school. They got stuck into all of the activities and were extremely well behaved and polite. Here is the day in pictures:

The day started with circle time games and a tour around the school. The St John's children were overwhelmed by the size of Banks Lane:




The children then rotated around 4 activities. These were making pirate hats, learning a pirate dance, making a healthy lunch and using the computers to write about their favourite parts of linking schools so far:







The children got to build relationships with children from the other school when playing in the quad at playtime and lunchtime:




The children ate the healthy lunch they had made during the morning's activities whilst catching up with members of Banks Lane:





The day finished off with a treasure hunt and both classes performing the pirate dance together. Thanks to Banks Lane for a fantastic day! We really enjoyed ourselves and cannot wait for our next trip together.
