• 🌿Cambridge Botanical Gardens Trip

  Fri 20 Mar 2026

  Our Year 2 children had a thoroughly enjoyable day at the Cambridge University Botanic Gardens. They explored the rainforest inside the glasshouse and were amazed by one of the largest trees in the UK near the pond area. The children were especially excited to spot and identify wildlife during their visit. They were fantastic representatives of Millfield throughout the trip, well done, Year 2!

• 🚧Hazard Alley Trip

  Fri 20 Mar 2026

  Year 4 visited Hazard Alley on Monday to learn more about how to stay safe. They participated in a range of scenarios including how to stay safe near water, online safety and finding safe places to cross roads. The children experienced making urgent phone calls to the emergency services and putting someone into the recovery position. The children very much enjoyed the trip and were great representatives of Millfield. Thank you to the Year 4 teaching team for organising such an important trip for our children to experience real life challenging scenarios.

• Family Friday session:

  Fri 13 Mar 2026

  It was fantastic to welcome so many parents and carers to our Family Friday Science session this week! The session provided a wonderful opportunity to share the children’s learning and progress, as well as for families to enjoy time together in the classroom environment.

  

• 🔬Science week

  Fri 13 Mar 2026

  As part of science week, Millfield children from Nursery to Year 4 created stunning pieces of artwork inspired by patterns in nature. Each year group explored a different theme, from leaf patterns and spirals to symmetry, animal markings and patterns in water. The children showed great curiosity while learning about these natural patterns and their thoughtful pupil voice comments were added to the artwork to share their observations. The final pieces look absolutely amazing and really showcase the children’s science and creativity learning. 🎨✨

   

  Over the week, children across all year groups have taken part in a range of exciting science explorations. From melting chocolate and learning about rocks to testing foil boats and much more, the children have loved investigating, experimenting and discovering new things. It has been a fantastic week of curiosity and hands-on learning! 🔬✨
