What an exciting day Reception had on their very first school trip! We hopped aboard the coach and travelled to The Discovery Museum in Newcastle for a fantastic Lost in the Toy Museum workshop.

Our adventure began with a fun story all about getting lost in a toy museum. We listened carefully and discovered lots of clues that would help us on our very own toy hunt!

The children became toy detectives as they searched for and discovered their very own old toys using the clues. We then had the wonderful opportunity to handle and explore a selection of old toys, finding out what toys were like in the past and how they were different from the toys we play with today.

But the fun didn't stop there! We got creative and became toy designers, making our very own moving toys using just paper and straws. We loved experimenting with how to make our toys move!

We had a brilliant day full of storytelling, exploring, investigating and creating. The children were fantastic and made us so proud with their curiosity, enthusiasm and wonderful behaviour throughout the trip.
