Willstone at the Ironworks

This week, Willstone went on a trip to the Ironworks in Oswestry. We enjoyed walking around the extinction trail and learning about all the endangered and critically endangered animals. We stopped to sketch a few as well. Did you know that an elephant weighs the same amount as 3 family cars and a black rhino is actually grey?

After, we were lucky enough to be able to see the process of a ring being made by the local silversmith. He explained how a piece of metal can become a shiny piece of jewellery!

Finally, we were able to see some Beatrix Potter ornaments that link to our culture books at school as well as the great Iron Man from our Autumn topic. We had such great fun!
