In the days leading up to the visit, excitement among the boys surged to an all-time high, culminating in an unforgettable experience. The highlight of the trip was a hands-on workshop where the boys engaged in designing a 'tripod rover' using LEGO Spike (robotics) and block coding, allowing them to dive deep into a dynamic, kinaesthetic learning activity. Following the enriching workshop, they explored the iconic Lego 'Miniworld' and embarked on a mission to enjoy as many rides as possible. Fortuitously, the day was marked by perfect spring weather and exceptional behaviour from a group of boys who showed great manners and deep appreciation for the experience. It was unanimously declared, "the best trip ever!"

LEGOLAND BY YEAR 5 EMS ENGLISH SET

Mrs MacDonald-Smith's English set has been working on making super sentences, using their feelings in a moment in time. Here are some of their thoughts on Legoland:

• As I entered the gates of the Kingdom of Play, the air itself seemed to fizz with excitement.
• The atmosphere was filled with eagerness. Screams and energy filled the air.
• My heart glowed with pride as my Lego robot rolled to the designated spot.
• The scale of the winged lion took my breath away with its majestic wings and bold face.
• As the ride started, freezing water thrust from behind, all over us.
• The livid water attacked me as I raced down the ride.
• Cold fingers gripped my heart as evil giggling echoed across the unlit chamber.
• As we sailed into the sky, my body convulsed with joy!
• My stomach slammed into my pale body, as I plummeted through the air.
• It felt like my body had vanished as I dropped down.
• Our heads drooped mournfully as they announced the rides were closing.
• My brain filled with memories as I slouched in my coach seat.
