On Monday and Tuesday Year 1 visited the wonderful Natural History Museum. Inspired by their learning in the Ranelagh Curriculum, the children visited many different galleries and took in the breath-taking sights. “The blue whale is enormous! I never knew it was so big,” Yusuf commented. “I really liked the polar bear. It is so white but it has black skin and I didn’t know that,” Anastasia explained.

The children enjoyed discussing and asking questions about different living things and their habitats, from gigantic rhino beetles to the colossal sail fish. They were fascinated to see such magnificent living creatures on display in one of London’s finest museums, and cannot wait to return one day.
