walk along Worcester Racecourse with Primary 2

The pupils showed an interest in exploring Worcester Racecourse before the Race for Life run or walk as the pupils wanted to investigate visually in person how far around the racecourse they would need to walk or run and where they will start and end which would be the grand stand. As we were walking the pupils enjoyed jumping over the puddles. Halfway along the pupils as a group showed an interest in skimming stones in the puddles to see how far they would travel. When we got to the Gheluvelt the pupils took it in turns to take part with the exercise equipment's. The pupils then worked together to push their peers on the big swing and climb along the obstacle course. 

walk along the river at Leasowes Park with Primary 1

The pupils enjoyed walking around Leasowes Park as they explored through the various streams by using their feet to make footprints in the water, jumping from one side of the stream to the other or using the tree branches to balance along. While we were walking the pupils saw ducks in a pond as one pupil said "can we go for a swim with the ducks". Another pupil replied "no it is too deep, you will sink to the bottom". As we continued we found another stream where we played a game of Simon Says. 

When we finished the game we walked further on in the direction of the park. Halfway along the paths the pupils pointed and said "look there is a cave". We travelled over the bridge and down the steps beside the cave. As we got to it one of the pupils shouted "wow this is so cool, look at the waterfall". The pupils each had a go to see how far in the stream they could reach and how deep the water would be with one pupil describing the temperature as "wow that was so cold, colder than the other streams".

 

As we got to the park all of the pupils showed an interest in either exploring the obstacle courses on the climbing frame, swinging on the swings to see how high they could go as well as seeing how fast they could spin on a spinning top.
