| The Living Rainforest | Tour was very good and linked well to Immersion topic and science topic of animals and adaptations. Good for Year 4 age too. The rainforest was slightly smaller than we thought. Journey was very long and ended up in traffic for 40 minutes as the driver didn't check ahead to see for diversions and roadworks. | 13 January 2022 | |

| Natural History Museum | The trip itself was really good and the children had a lovely day. When we go next year, we need to ensure we have a workshop booked so that they are not walking for as long. Likewise, we need to schedule a longer time for the children to complete the activities in the different zones. | 12 January 2022 | |

| Hooke Court | Felt that there were not enough staff, activities were running late, staff were turning up late as they had so much to do. The last day the activity was running an hour and a half late which meant a late return to school which impacted staff and parents. We understand this could have been COVID related. Seemed to have lost something from previous visits. | 12 January 2022 | |

| Wandlebury Country Park (Cambridge Past, Present & Future) | The children’s feedback was that they had a great day. They have remembered a huge amount about the Iron Age and linked in their prior learning of the Stone Age and Bronze Age. They also learnt a little about how the Romans had an impact of the Iron Age leading into our summer topic- Miss Scott | 07 January 2022 | |
