Day two in Iceland has not disappointed! We started our morning with a visit to the geothermal power station where we sat in awe and wonder learning all about how energy is harnessed from the earth. Stop two was a lovely and relaxing dip in the geothermal pools of the Secret Lagoon. Stop three lead us to the absolutely amazing sight that is the Gullfoss waterfalls. A truly breathtaking sight! Stop four gave the pupils an opportunity to feed some very cute and little Icelandic horses. Some of the pupils (Mr Connors!) were brave enough to feed them! Stop five was the Great Geysir where we waited and watched to see how the earth can create a natural eruption of water and steam. Our final destination was the Thingellir National park where we had the opportunity to walk between the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates. Phew! What a lot we have fitted in! We are all looking forward to tomorrow鈥檚 adventure where we will be walking a glacier!

Congratulations to our Key Stage 2 pupils who received their superhero awards for January. Awarded for excellent manners, work or achievements were Hannah, Cassius, Eddie and Willow

What an absolutely phenomenal day! We landed in Iceland at 11am and were welcomed by some stunning views of the landscape. After exploring the sights in Rejkaviik we had a fun filled laser tag/arcade evening where the competition was high! The pizza dinner went down well after all that exertion. Our patience paid off after waiting for over two hours to see the natural phenomena of the Northern Lights- it was magical!

Year 1 had a fantastic trip to the Steyning Museum to learn all about houses and homes. We found out how houses were made in the olden days and explored how they used to wash their clothes, heat their houses and what they could use when it got dark, as there was no electricity. They all had lots of questions and we were intrigued by the chamber pots that lived under the bed.

Years 10 and 11 arrived at Heathrow safely this morning and are all looking forward to a fun filled few days in Iceland!

A group of Y10 pupils recently took part in a night navigation exercise around Stanmer Park in Brighton. This provided pupils with the opportunity to refine their navigation skills in preparation for the Silver Duke of Edinburgh expeditions.
