  • Year 5 Church Trail in Princes Risborough

    Fri 17 Oct 2025

    On the 16th of October we went on a church trail in Princes Risborough. The churches we went to were St. Teresa's the Baptists and St. Mary’s.

    St. Teresa's

    In St. Teresa's we learnt about the Sanctuary Lamp which reminds us that God is always here. There are enormous domes that keep the heat in. There are 14 pictures of Jesus's last day that are beautiful gold leaf paintings.

    The Baptists

    At the Baptists we saw Mrs Hirst there she told us that the hole in the floor is a baptistry and there are beams to cover it up. There’s a balcony that you can see all of the bottom level of the church. We were given a biscuit and juice at the start to keep our brains going. We got to do a very interesting scavenger hunt about the church.

    St. Mary's

    The altar has 2 massive candles on top. Did you know there’s a secret mark called the bishop's mark. This is an old church. One of the main things they do is holy communion on a Sunday morning. They use wafers, made out of water and flour, and wine. The font has an old sink in it that they use for baby baptisms.

    My favourite church was the Baptists because Mrs Hirst was there and all the facts were so fascinating.

    Year 2's walk to Princes Risborough this morning

     

    Our field trip to Princes Risborough by Polly On our walk we went past some houses. Mr Stannett us some human and physical features. The physical
    feature was The Brook. The Brook was not straight because it had been there a long time and humans had made steps to go over it. Next, we went to see a surprise person and it was Mrs. Hirst. She gave us a drink and a snack and it was amazing. Finally, we walked back to school Princes Risborough.

    We left school. We went past the church. We went past the Dovecot, this is a human feature. Next, we saw a physical feature, it was a stream. We went to the church and we saw Mrs Hirst. We had some squash and biscuits. We had the best time. Finally, it was time to head back. We went past a shelter and we were back at school. I had an amazing time on my trip.

     

     

     

  • Year 1 Visit from the paramedics

    Wed 15 Oct 2025

    Luke and Megan came to visit us. They work at Stoke Mandeville Hospital. We learned how to call an ambulance when someone we know is hurt. They showed us some equipment, including something that showed our heartbeat. We looked at Mrs Horton's heartbeat and it was healthy! They showed us how they get to our homes and we had to tell them our address! We know we only call 999 if it is an emergency!
