During that same week, Year 6 welcomed Simon Ward, an explorer from 'The Explorer Academy,' as part of their 'Tales from the Treetops' topic. From the very first moment, Simon captivated the children with photos and videos from his awe-inspiring expeditions to rainforests around the globe. Engulfed in a vibrant rainforest setting, Year 6 spent the morning investigating the locations of the world's rainforests, their tropical climates, the various layers of the rainforest, and the astounding diversity of plant life that thrives there. A particularly memorable moment was when Simon shared his drone footage, showcasing the four distinct layers of the rainforest and the diverse array of plants and animals inhabiting each one. The Explorer Workshop was a remarkable opportunity to bring the treetops topic to life in an engaging and dynamic way.
