Our oldest children had a fantastic morning in Sherborne visiting Ecco Gelato, where they were able to develop their Scientific knowledge on states of matter.  The children were able to watch the process of gelato being made and were able to try a range of different flavours, whilst learning about the practical processes behind the development of flavours. The children asked lots of insightful questions and will be able to use this knowledge in their Design and Technology work where they will be designing and making their own ice creams.

Then, it was on to Sherborne Abbey.  The awe and wonder was palpable as we entered this magnificent building.  The children toured the abbey in groups and made comparisons between it and St. Peter's Church in Hornblotton.  Whilst the differences were clear to see, the children also found lots of similarities.
