Year 5 were extremely lucky today as they were the first children to visit the new Brooklands Farm Primary School!
We walked (very sensibly) to the new school, where we met the builders from Willmott Dixon! We were the first children to step into the new school, it was very exciting and a privilege!
Year 5 split into two groups. One group went on a tour round the new building, we had to wear high-visibility jackets and hard hats. We got to see all the new classrooms, as we walked round we thought carefully about how we could transform this building into a Brooklands Farm School! We had lots of ideas including colourful pieces of artwork and coloured tiles on the carpet, and of course making it clear that we are ‘weaving a learning journey’! Finally, we got the see the new school hall and the school field! As part of our building project, we are designing a space for another year group so we asked the builder lots of questions to help us with our designs!
While the other group were having their tour, the rest of year 5 had a picnic in the new school hall! We had some biscuits and squash. Miss Low really wanted our opinion on the school hall and asked how we can reflect the ethos of Brooklands Farm in there.
