From the Starbeck Primary Academy
We value the assistance we have received from all of the 20212022 staff members, students, parents, and carers. Our Reception class had a fun educational trip thanks to Tropical World in Leeds. The kids observed and learned about terrapins, meerkats, spiders, exotic birds, caimans, fish, lizards, frogs, and a wide variety of other animals. One of their curriculum stars was making "Natural Crowns," and Mrs. Pitts let the kids do the teaching. With their organisation, presentation, and excitement for the things they taught, the kids did an excellent job. After several weeks of practise, our group of aspiring actors and actresses performed The Emperor's New Clothes on stage at Harrogate Theatre. Families, friends, and staff members watched as the kids displayed amazing theatre skills and put on a fantastic performance. Key Stage 2 had a great time competing in their school colours and receiving team points for sportsmanship, effort, and teamwork. Tropical World in Leeds provided an engaging educational experience for our Reception class. With their organisation, presentation, and excitement for the things they taught, the kids did an excellent job.
