Year 2’s Exciting Trip to Lotherton Hall

​Year 2 had a fantastic day out on their recent trip to Lotherton Hall! The children were buzzing with excitement from the moment they set off, and the day turned out to be packed with learning, fun and adventure.
 
One of the highlights of the day was visiting Lotherton House, where the children had the special opportunity to meet none other than Florence Nightingale herself! Florence shared fascinating stories about her life and the incredible work she did caring for soldiers during the Crimean War. The children loved helping her pack her suitcase, choosing the essential items she would need for her journey to Crimea.
 
After their time with Florence, the class explored Wildlife World, where they discovered an array of exotic birds and other animals. From colourful parrots to curious mammals, there was so much to see and talk about. It was wonderful to see the children’s enthusiasm as they learned about different species and their habitats.
 
Of course, no school trip would be complete without some time to relax and have fun together. The children enjoyed a lovely picnic lunch and then burned off some energy in the play area, where laughter and smiles were in abundance.
 
Overall, it was a truly memorable day. The children returned to school full of stories to share and new knowledge to build upon in their lessons. A big thank you to everyone who helped make the trip possible – and well done to Year 2 for representing our school so beautifully!
