Year 4 have recently returned from an amazing trip to Grosseto where they travelled back in time to experience life during the Stone Age! We stayed in a beautiful agriturismo and the children took part in some wonderful, hands-on activities. As the photos and videos will show you, this was a truly remarkable experience for the children and I must say that the teachers enjoyed it as well!
