Nell Bank

Year 4

Class 4 recently went to Nell Bank in Ilkley as part of the schools celebration of Yorkshire Towns and Cities week. The children were thrilled to be able to spend the morning in Middleton Woods creating their own news reports of a sighting of a mysterious giant that lived in the woods. The children were brilliant in using their senses to be able to describe the woodland that they were exploring. After lunch (and a play in the water park), the children carried on the investigations into the whereabouts of 'Rombald the Giant'. This time, the children used their maths skills to calculate the distance of some footprints that had been left in a field. From this calculation, they worked out what the potential height of the giant could be by using their 7 times tables. As the fog slowly lifted above Rombalds Moor, the children created some fantastic large scale artworks of the giant. A brilliant day out topped off with an energetic play in the awesome adventure play park.
