  Base 3 visit Leicester

   

  The children have had a great day exploring Leicester and learning about its history.

   

  They started 2000 years ago at the Jewry Wall Museum, a site of some Roman baths. They then walked to the Guildhall and on about 1000 years through history to discover what buildings from the Middle Ages were like.

   

  They then strolled around the centre of Leicester, through the market and past a few landmarks, before finishing at the Cathedral and the tomb of Richard III. Phew!

  What a fantastic couple of performances, both to a packed church. We feel very Christmassy now! Base 1 were brilliant on stage, Base 2 read beautifully and Base 3 provided glorious singing and bell-ringing. Thank you to everyone involved.

• Base 3 DT

  Fri 28 Nov 2025

  What a great final day for our student Miss Register! She ran a Design and Technology day and the children all got to design and make a prototype fairground ride. The classroom was wonderful, colourful, excitable but industrious chaos - it was fantastic!
