Heatree Activities Week
This was a week long residential held regularly, which ran for pupils in Year 5. Years 4 & 6 stayed two nights and Years 1, 2 & 3 visited on one day. This Centre brings the curriculum to life through problem solving, eco challenges, moor art and water investigation.

Roman Week
Roman Week is when pupils in Years 5 & 6 experienced a Roman Boot camp, suppervised by Roman centurians. All pupils learnt crafts, drill & Latin throughout the week, demonstrating their new skills at the end of the week.

Puppet Workshop
Puppet Workshop is where pupils wrote the script and where every pupil, 150 in total, made a puppet and they put on a performance after the 4 days.

Book Week
Book week is where we had a whole week dedicated to the joy of books. The week was filled with activities, guest authors visited, we had an African reading, Tents, visits to the Local Library and we all dressed up as our favourite book characters.

Lego Day
Lego Day was where every child in the Prep Department made a building constructing a huge village, covering the whole of our hall!
