This week the children have been fortunate to have had two visitors. 

We welcomed back an ex-Radipole pupil to undertake some work experience. Emily helped out in both classes, but also took charge of one of the PE activities, along with Tom, during our regular Games lesson on Thursday. 

On Wednesday, we were overjoyed to welcome Mike Jeffries to our classes. Mike Jeffries is a local watercolour artist. In the Autumn term,  the children studied lots of Mike's work as part of our art curriculum. On Wednesday, Mike talked through, and demonstrated, how he went about creating his masterpieces. He took the children through a step by step  approach, and the children worked alongside him to produce their own masterpieces, and developing their mixing colours and creating effects in a painting. He thoroughly enjoyed working and inspiring the children. 

"It was so nice to see all the smiling faces and the intense concentration of many.  The next generation of artists, musicians, sports men and women and captains of industry!" Mike Jeffries. 

How wonderful to think that our children truly are that!

Perhaps the current year 4 classes will return to school in the future and inspire future generations too!
