Earlier this month BPS was whisked away to the rainforests of Borneo thanks to @teach_rex and their incredibly lifelike puppetry. The children were spellbound as they met Fito the orphaned orangutan and learned how our everyday choices impact wildlife and the planet.
Both Key Stage 1 and 2 were captivated β from the big assembly to hands-on workshops. Our younger children met baby rainforest animals (including Derek the sloth and Rodger the parrot!), while KS2 became rainforest explorers using green-screen tech to make their own mini-movies.
A day full of curiosity, empathy and pure wonder β and a reminder that even small actions can help protect our world. ππ
