We are thrilled to report that our Annual Cross Country Event was a tremendous success! Students from Key Stage 2 participated with enthusiasm and determination, showcasing their athletic spirit and sportsmanship.

On the day of the event, the air was filled with excitement as children took to the course, each one giving their best effort. It was heart warming to see friends cheering each other on, creating a supportive and encouraging atmosphere.

Every participant truly tried their hardest, and it was evident that everyone had a fantastic time. Whether they were racing for a personal best or simply enjoying the day, the smiles on their faces were priceless.

As part of our Stone Age topic, Year 3 has been exploring the fascinating history of Stonehenge. We gathered lots of interesting facts, discussed how it was built, and learnt about the main types of stone used in its construction. To bring our learning to life, we recreated Stonehenge using biscuits in class! It was a fun and engaging way to understand this iconic monument.

The School Council are proud to announce Ramsgate Holy Trinity have received the Silver Kent Wilder Award, due to all the hard work we have done over the past year.  We will continue to take positive actions for nature and wildlife as we embark on this new academic year.

In dance and drama Year four have made a really good start into exploring the characters in our new book and also recreating through dance a darker version of Little Red Riding Hood.

Years 1 and 2 visited the Powell-Cotton Museum which offered an exciting, fun and interactive day out for all. ​The children saw some incredible natural history displays, featuring animals from the African and Asian continents in world-famous dioramas.  There were also lots of fascinating displays of world-culture objects as well as local archaeology. The children had the opportunity to try traditional printing methods using blocks and ink. They also enjoyed making the most of the good weather exploring the grounds around the museum.  

In this weeks' chapter of The Explorer the children built a raft to give themselves the chance to get from the rainforest to Manaus to alert people to their plight. So in drama the children paired up to have a go at building their own raft using only natural resources they could find in the nature trail and some string. The results were amazing! With clever problem solving and some trial and error - they came up with some really good designs. Then they had to add small rocks to represent themselves on the raft and see if it would float! Some

Of the designs worked exceptionally well as they were wide, strong and had enough protection. Others may have ended up in the water with their rafts! It's a good thing we only trialled the miniature versions!
