Year 3 Visit Arlington Court

3EC visited Arlington Court this week. We had such a wonderful day doing cave-like paintings using natural resources such as mud, horse-hair brushes, beetroot and charcoal. We also built a model Stone-Age settlement using clay, leaves and sticks. Finally, we built our own life-size shelters! We worked hard as a team to build something that we could all fit in and that would protect us.

'The challenge of building a den was fun!' ASHLEY KINO 3EC
