This week at Orchard, we welcomed some very special family members for our Bring a Significant Male to School morning! Year 3 explored charcoal techniques and created amazing cave drawings, while the other Year 3 class took part in a bread-making workshop, learning how wheat is sourced and how bran is separated. Year 1 got creative with colour, mixing red, blue and yellow paint to discover new colours.
