Year 6 had some tag rugby coaching this afternoon. They learned how to pass the ball and how to defend and attack. 

Year 6 had a wonderful afternoon investigating and observing the historic site of Egremont Castle and noticing exactly why it was such a perfect position for a fort and castle. 

Year 6 had a lovely morning learning at Florence Mine learning about the mining industry , how it has been a huge part of the development of Egremont and inspiration to local artists.

In the animal barn, they petted goats, sheep, and…

What a great day! Year 6 had a thoroughly enjoyable day on their final trip together at Primary School.
