Last week Reception enjoyed an enchanting autumnal experience as they immersed themselves in a sensory-rich visit to nearby Kew Green. They enjoyed the journey, observing the leaves of different shapes, sizes and colours and marvelling at the textures and patterns of nature. The children tasted fresh raindrops with delight, smelled the flowers along the way and enjoyed the singing of the birds and the squirrels scuttering to collect chestnuts π³ππΏπ°π
