LANDSCORE Primary School has welcomed parents and families into school on a number of occasions recently with four open afternoons.

Years 5/6 welcomed parents to share their learning on the rainforest.

The year group had visited the Eden project to bring their learning to life and on returning to school, constructed rainforest models which illustrated the different layers of the rainforest and the life that is found in them.

In Years 3/4 the children have been studying the Stone Age and more than 80 parents joined their pupils to create a large cave painting using their hands and charcoal that the children had made in the school woodland. They then visited the classrooms to see the work that had been completed over the term, which included models of woolly mammoths and stone age villages.

Pupils in Year 2 opened up their classrooms to friends and family to share what they had learnt during their materials topic.

They held a Regatta where parents and children made boats and enjoyed the scones that the children had baked.

Reception and Year 1 spent the term learning about Space. On Monday, April 1 they had a visit from the Explorer Dome, which was very exciting as they gazed up at the stars above.

Then parents joined them to launch bottle rockets on the school field before making their own rockets to take home.

Parents also had a chance to look at all the work completed throughout the term in the children’s books.

The school was overwhelmed by the huge numbers of parents who supported the open afternoons and would like to thank everyone who went along.
