Getting stuck into wheelwrighting at the Rural Life Centre. The children worked as a team to build a wagon wheel almost as big as them! #TraditionalCrafts #HandsOnLearning #PrimaryEducation

Experiencing a Victorian classroom & teacher at the Rural Life Centre. No talking, sitting up straight & if you don't follow the rules... a dunces hat & a seat in the corner. We came back with a new appreciation for our teachers! #SchoolExperiences #PrimaryEducation #SchoolLife

Marlowe, our school dog, has been enjoying his summer holiday. He has bravely explored the Norfolk Broads on a boat and has been on plenty of long walks. What have you all been doing? #schooldog #summerholidays

We did it again! Our amazing Eco Team and the hard work of all our pupils has earned the school their @EcoSchools Green Flag award for the second year running. Keep up the good work! #ecowarriors #ecoschools #sustainableschool #globalcitizens #shapingtheworld

We are lucky to be able to access so much of rural life, and our pupils develop resilience and a love of nature through these experiences. Here they are being respectful, responsible and safe with a curious cow. #ProudTeachers #OutdoorLearning #RespectForNature #PrimaryEducation

Learning about metalwork at the Rural Life Centre. The children watched a master blacksmith at work and asked lots of thoughtful questions. #HandsOnLearning #SchoolTrip #PrimaryEducation

Learning all about #bees on our incredible whole school trip to the Rural Life Living Museum. We watched bees in the hive, tasted fresh honey straight from the comb and learned why hexagons are better than circles. #SchoolTrip #EducationMatters #BeeAwareness #NatureExploration

Congratulations to Kingfishers, who won the Y3 category of this year's @FarnhamLions Art Competition and a £50 WHSmith voucher. They entered a collaborative piece, a beautiful abstract composition of a bee. #CreativeLearning #PrimaryEducation #ProudSchool #CreativeTalents

What a beautiful morning for the first running club of the summer term! Just look at that sky! As always, a very big thank you to our parent helpers - we couldn't run this club without you.

The whole #school took part in an #ecofriendly craft day last week. Willow-weaved fish, willow animal #sculptures and #upcycled fabric #weaving happened across the school. Huge thanks to Willow Twisters for running the animal sculptures and our amazing PTA for funding it all!

Year 1 had a lovely time on the common with their Year 5 buddies. They did lots of team-building activities and finished by creating rockets in their house groups. #stjamesprimaryelstead #primaryschool #primaryeducation #outdoorlearning #learningthroughplay
