Leeds City Museum Trip
Pupils took part in an action-packed visit to Leeds City Museum, where they learned about the mummified person Nesyamun, discovered real Ancient Egyptian artefacts, and helped to mummify Suny, the Egyptian boy.
During the workshop, pupils explored the Ancient Worlds gallery, completing a task to help a mummified person reach the afterlife. They then discussed the life of the mummified person with a museum facilitator. Back in the education space, pupils took part in their own mummification activity, working as a team to prepare and wrap a doll for its journey into the afterlife.
Barnsley Museum
Barnsley Museum offers a unique and engaging school trip experience linked to the Stone Age. During the workshop, pupils take part in hands-on activities such as handling artefacts, grouping them by date, and creating replicas of Stone Age tools and shelters. They also enjoy activities including pot-making, cave painting, and exploring the museum to identify edible plants. The workshop is designed to be both educational and immersive, helping pupils to develop a deeper understanding of life in the Stone Age and connect with their historical roots.
Polar Express
In the Autumn 2 term, children in year 3 read the story of ‘The Polar Express’. For our trip, we go on a truly magical adventure to Wensleydale Railway Station who recreate the classic Christmas tale. The visit immerses the children in the sights, sounds and intrigue of the Polar Express. Once the children board the steam train (in their pyjamas of course) the magic truly begins. The dancing waiters serve the children with hot chocolate and the extravagant conductor mesmerises the children with his tales from the North Pole. The children listen to the story told in its entirety and upon arrival at the North Pole each child is given their very own, personalised silver bell from Santa -just like in the story!

Elland Road
Year 3 enjoyed an exciting school trip to Elland Road, the home ground of Leeds United. During the visit, the children explored the stadium and learned how the building has changed over the years. They also studied the geography of the area, considering where the stadium is located, before taking part in a guided stadium tour that brought their learning to life.
Sikh Experience with Mrs Ratour
Mrs Ratour visited Year 3 to talk to the children and share her personal experience of being a Sikh, explaining what Sikhism means to her. The children had a valuable hands-on learning experience and were able to learn first-hand about Sikh beliefs and practices. There were plenty of opportunities for the children to ask questions, helping to deepen their understanding and curiosity.
