The children in Reception have had two chilly weeks in the woods. The drop in temperature meant we got a lot more steps in to keep warm. We explored the ice, looked for patterns in the snow and were lucky to find some frozen leaves! We fed the ducks, explored the park a bit more, finding some fascinating trees and even did some scavenger hunts. Some of us were even lucky enough to have our drink and biscuit in the cafe while we read a story all about a Robin. Then this week we were over the moon to find the Denbigh Robin had returned! #dcpsEYFS #dcpsladybird #dcpsbutterfly #dcpscore #dcpslotc #dcpsscience ... See MoreSee Less

Year 3 Turtles have had the best day at The Rising Sun having their Stoneage day. We learnt how the Stoneage people turned wheat into flour, used flour to make our own bread and then had to build a shelter in the forest just like the Stoneage people would have had to do! It has been an amazing day 🌈 🪵🫓 #dcpsturtle #dcpshistory #dcpscore #dcpslotc ... See MoreSee Less
