When I Grow Up

This term we have been thinking about what we would like to be when we grow up.  Some of our parents have been in to our Assemblies to talk about the jobs they do.

Mrs Eve gave a very informative talk about what being a dentist involved.  She brought in models of teeth and a skull, and stressed how important it is to look after our teeth, with regular brushing.

Mr Turner gave us a fascinating insight into the running of his quarry.  It was most interesting to learn about the time taken for the rocks to form.  We discovered that this was a very manual job, as all the rock is excavated by hand.

When Mr Atherton (vet) visited he brought in his dog.  All the children had a chance to use a stethoscope and listen to his heart.  There were lots of questions about the different types of animals he had treated.

Mrs Bowers visited us and discussed her role as a 'first responder' in the community. She told us how important it is to know our home address and the emergency telephone number should there be a situation where we need to call for help.
