School Trips
ACADEMIC YEAR 2024-2025
Autumn 1 - Year 4 Pizza Express - Adapting Recipes and Where our Food comes from
On Thursday 26th, Year 4 visited Pizza Express in Poynton, linked to our current learning about Adapting Recipes in Design and Technology and in preparation for Geography unit of 'Where our Food comes from'. First, we had to make sure we were ready to work with food and practiced good food hygiene by washing our hands with soap and then putting on an apron and hat.
Then we were each given a ball of fresh pizza dough on the table. We watched each demonstration for the step by step process of making the pizza and then had a go ourselves. This involved stretching and shaping the dough, oiling the pan and placing the pizza base in, applying the sauce and spreading it evenly and finally adding the cheese before going in to the oven to cook. Did you know the oven heats up to 360 degrees and cooks the pizzas in just 5 minutes!
We then took part in a quiz about where the food comes from and collected our pizzas in boxes. They tasted fantastic and we cannot wait to use our newly acquired skills to create our own pizzas in class.

Year 4 are very thankful to all the volunteers that gave up there time to make this happen.
Spring 1
Autumn 2 - Year 4 and Year 5 - St. Anne's R.C.V.C Pantomime
On Monday 18th December, Year 4 and Year 5 were invited to St. Anne's Roman Catholic Voluntary Academy to watch their Christmas Pantomime performance of 'Robin Hood'. We walked from Whitehill and were met at the reception and taken to the theatre. All the children were given refreshments whilst we waited for the performance to begin. There were a few ex-pupils acting in the show which was great to see how they are getting on. We joined in as part of the audience and thoroughly enjoyed it. 5 star reviews all around.
Autumn 2 - Year 4 - St.Michael and All Angles Parish Church - Christmas Story
On Wednesday 6th December, as part of our R.E. topics; ‘Why Jesus is inspiring to some people?’ and ‘Why are Festivals important?’, Year 4 visited St. Michael and All Angels Parish Church, Bramhall.
The children were introduced to the Christmas story and, working in groups, they moved between six different, interactive stations lead by volunteers from the church to learn more about each stage of the Christmas Journey. At each stage the children crafted delightful Christmas items and were later treated to a drink and a snack.
Autumn 2 – Quarry Bank Mill – Victorian Children
As part of our learning around the Victorian period, on Friday 3rd November 2023, we visited Quarry Bank Mill. We delved into the daily life of mill workers through engaging activities, hands-on experiences, and captivating demonstrations.
Our day was filled with enlightening activities, such as exploring the home life and free time of Styal residents, unravelling the mysteries of mill money by calculating weekly pay, and stepping into the shoes of Victorian children to understand their various jobs within the Mill. We also delved into the grim realities of disease and danger associated with working in a Mill, gaining a profound insight into the challenges faced during that era.
Witnessing hand-spinning and weaving demonstrations brought the historical context to life, allowing us to grasp the magnitude of change during this pivotal time. The clatter of machines echoed through the air, immersing us in the working conditions of Quarry Bank Mill. Additionally, we explored the fascinating process of powering the machines with water and even had the chance to visit the steam gallery.
One of the highlights was the interactive experience led by a costumed interpreter, offering a glimpse into the life of an apprentice at the Apprentice House. As new apprentices from a workhouse, we engaged in various activities, providing us with a profound understanding of the stark differences in children's lives during the Victorian era.
Year 6 - Autumn 1 - Salford Museum and Art Gallery - Victorians
As part of our learning around the Victorian period, on Tuesday 17th October 2023, we visited Salford Museum and Art Gallery. We became curators for the day, sharpening our historical enquiry skills by examining real Victorian objects and looking for clues as to what they might be. We discussed their features and inferred what they might be used for. In the end, we discovered that the objects we handled were: a hot water bottle, a hat pin, a carpet beater, an iron, a button hooker, a back straightener and a candle snuffer.
Then, down in the depths of the museum, we were taken on a tour of Lark Hill Place - a Victorian street stuck over 100 years in the past, complete with genuine street signs and fittings. We felt as though we had been transported back to 1897!
The cobbled street replicated the ambiance of a winter’s evening, just after the gas lamps had been lit, when people would have been hurrying back from work and popping into shops on their way home. The sounds of horse-drawn carriages and children playing traditional games added to our sense of immersion. A range of Victorian businesses lined the street, including a chemist, blacksmith, toy shop, and printers, all fitted out with genuine Victorian artefacts. We even went to the pub, The Blue Lion Tavern, however we did not have anything to drink!
We found out more about our objects and what daily life was like for those living in the area when Queen Victoria was on the throne.
Early Years Autumn 1: Z-Arts Performance Centre
As part of our learning about Traditional Tales, Early Years and the Rainbow Room visited an immersive fairy tale experience at Z-Arts Performance Centre in Hulme.

Year 4 Spring 1: Pizza Express
As part of our learning about Eating and Digestion in Science and following recipes in Food Technology, Year 4 went to Pizza Express in Cheadle Village.
We learnt about good food hygiene and put on aprons and hats. We were then given our own dough in a steel pan which we had to press around the edges to create the crust. Then we had to ask for our favourite toppings which the manager collected for us to decorate our pizzas. Whilst the pizzas were baking we took part in a quiz about ingredients and where they were from. As part of the quiz we were allowed to taste a variety of ingredients that we may have not tasted before.
EYFS Autumn 2: Road Safety
Nursery and Reception went on a local walk to put all our road safety learning into practise.
Our rules are:
Always hold an adult’s hand and stay on the pavement
Never run ahead, a vehicle could be coming out of someone’s drive
Find a safe place to cross if there isn’t a crossing and never cross by a parked vehicle
You need to stop, look, listen and think. Ask yourself “Is it safe to cross?” Keep looking, listening and thinking as you cross.
Year 4 Autumn 2: Alertacall - Alarms
Year 4 had a fascinating trip to Alertacall's Warrington office, to begin our design and technology topic of Alarms. We began with a very important business meeting in the boardroom followed by a tour of the offices. We discussed their mission statement and how some of their themes link to our own mission statement at Whitehill. We went to a demonstration room to identify all the different types of alarms that could be in someone's home and which types of alarms would be used or needed in different situations. We found out what happens when alarms are triggered and how they can be triggered. We spoke to people in an alert call centre to find out what happens when an alarm is triggered. It was a very interesting trip and has given us plenty of ideas for when we design, create and test our own alarms.
Year 5 Autumn 2: Jodrell Bank - Earth and Space
Year 5 had an amazing trip to Jodrell Bank to consolidate our understanding of Earth and Space. We had an out-of-this-world experience visiting the new and informative exhibitions there. We were fascinated by learning about the rich history of Jodrell Bank and the role it played in tracking the space race! Being able to see the 3rd largest movable telescope in the world really was a brilliant experience. It has inspired many future scientists and really generated a want to know more about the unknown.
Year 6 Autumn 1: World War One - Imperial War Museum
As part of our work about World War One, we were lucky enough to go on a school trip to the Imperial War Museum North. We explored the displays on not only the First World War, but also the events that have followed. We gained knowledge on a number of themes such as the life on the home front, rationing, trench warfare, blitz, evacuation, and much more. We were also lucky enough to meet veterans and listen to their amazing, heroic stories.
ACADEMIC YEAR 2021-2022.
Early Years Foundation Stage: Asda
Nursery and Reception have been reading the story Handa's Surprise. There was a lot of new and unusual fruits in the story that the children hadn't come across before. So in order to design and make their fruit salad we decided to take a trip to the local supermarket to buy some of the fruits from the story. They walked in pairs talking about all the things they could see on their journey. They even recalled some facts from Road Safety Week. The children used their shopping lists to find the fruits in the supermarket. Reception had also been learning about fair trade week, so wet on a hunt in the supermarket to see if they could find food with a fair trade stamp. The children then checked out paying the cashier. They loved the experience and some were overheard saying it was the ''best day ever!''. The children enjoyed tasting and describing their fruits when they returned to school. They also made a healthy fruit salad to enjoy!
Year 4: Museum of Science and Industry
Year 4 had an exciting trip to the Museum of Science and Industry. While there we saw a replica of the world's first computer which was made in Manchester in 1948. Our favourite part of the day was the experiment room. In here there were lots of fantastic, hands-on things for us to do. We tested how strong we were and managed to move a whole car with gears, explored the properties of magnets and how forces act on each other, and even tested our reaction speed. We really enjoyed exploring the world around us and how things work.
Year 3: Iron Age Settlement Museum
During November, Year 3 uncovered archaeological evidence about Iron Age settlements near Stockport! The class went in the school minibus to Mellor, which is near Marple, to see the findings discovered by archaeologists 20 years ago. The children found evidence of Iron Age and Roman pottery, as well as a full replica Stone Age roundhouse settlement! The children really enjoyed themselves and loved going somewhere new.
Now that COVID 19 restrictions have been reviewed and updated, we have been able to plan for enrichment opportunities regarding educational visits.
Year 6: Imperial War Museum Trip - WW1
During November, as part of our work about World War One, we were lucky enough to go on a school trip to the Imperial War Museum North.

We were also lucky enough to meet veterans and listen to their amazing, heroic stories.
EYFS Road Safety Week 2021
EYFS have been learning all about road safety. The children learnt how to cross the road safely using the Stop, Look, Listen, Think sequence. We discussed the dangers that we may find on roads and ways that we can keep ourselves safe such as holding an adult’s hand, walking on the pavement and using pedestrian crossings. We put our learning into action by crossing a road outside school and learnt first-hand why you should never cross near a parked vehicle. Our outdoor area was transformed into a road system with traffic lights, a roundabout, crossings and even roadwork diversions to help us practise being safe drivers and pedestrians.

The group of Year 5 children were split into 2 groups of 4, one group conducted the investigation for other children and the other group went to look at and try all the other investigation designed by other schools. Then we swapped over so each group has a chance to conduct the experiment and see all the other schools investigations. Our investigation was to see how long an egg spent submerged in vinegar changed its bounciness. Some of the investigations included created a cushion around an egg and dropping it from different heights, does colour affect taste? Which liquids are acidic? How much iron is in our cereal? Which liquids work best for making a Lava Lamp, and so much more. At the end we received an award and joined in with the celebration song and dance to complete the afternoon.
Mancheser Road Park
On Thursday 23rd May Year 1 walked to our local park. In Science the children had been learning about lots of different plants and trees. Whilst at the park the children had several tasks to complete! They had to identify as many trees and plants as they could using the clues they had been given. They used many of the plants and leaves to create their own colours and rubbings! We enjoyed snack under the shade of a tree before conducting a nature hunt and of course ended the trip with a play in the play area!
