On Monday 50 children from Stanmore School were invited to enjoy a fabulous Jazz Combo perform at Winchester College. The rest of the school were fortunate enough to also listen to this talented group of musicians when they performed at the school on Wednesday afternoon.
Later in the week, Birch class attended a wildlife talk by Dr Tim Mackrill who has been part of the Rutland Water Osprey team since 1997.
The children learnt that these incredible birds of prey have been saved from extinction and several pairs are now breeding in Poole. They were amazed to learn that only 6 short weeks after hatching, the young Ospreys can migrate 3000 miles in 12 days to Africa and return to their nesting sites the following year.
