The children had been excitedly guessing what the VR morning on our calendar might be - today the secret was revealed!

Our ICT support, Ark, came to visit the school with 30 virtual reality headsets, enabling us to really bring our curriculum learning to life. 

Aqua class were first to have a go, and were able to explore the Arctic getting close to polar bears and other wildlife. It was great to see them able to look around and experience what it would be like if they were really in the Arctic (if a little warmer!)

Cobalt class then had a 'wow' start for their topic after the holiday looking at the Rainforest. They were able to explore what it is like in the Rainforest, and look at some conservation work linked to orang-utans.

Finally, it was the turn of Teal class, who, having spent the term learning about dinosaurs, were able to walk amongst them and experience their size! There were lots of gasps and sounds of amazement!

Thank you to the team at Ark for bringing in their equipment. It was a fantastic way to bring our learning to life.
