P2AC celebrate Sir David Attenborough’s 100th birthday

8th May 2026

P2 took their learning outside to celebrate Sir David Attenborough’s 100th birthday. 

The children really enjoyed using nature from our school grounds to help them learn. Some of the activities included: using daisy’s to count in 5, leaf rubbings, using ICT to record videos and photographs, adding with twigs and leaves, using magnifying glasses and microscopes and adding to our bug hotel. 


“It seems to me that the natural world is the greatest source of excitement” - David Attenborough
