Year 3 Trip to the Barbican

On Tuesday 22nd of November the children in Year 3 went to see the London Symphony Orchestra perform ‘The story of Roald Dahl’ at the Barbican Theatre.
We left school 9:30am and returned back by 3:05pm, travelling by bus and train. Thankfully, we arrived at the Barbican in time to enjoy our packed lunch before the breath-taking show began. The children listened to the story of Little Red Riding Hood performed by the Narrator and accompanied with music from the London Symphony Orchestra.
The performance was beautiful and all the children thoroughly enjoyed the performance!
Harper, Scotland Class said, ‘I can’t believe how big the harp was!’
Amy - Leigh, Wales class said, 'I loved the watching the orchestra and really enjoyed travelling on the bus and train with my friends'. She also went home and wrote a recount of the visit!
Emma, Wales class, claimed it was her first experience of travelling on the tube.

On our way home we got caught in the rain but were lucky enough to see a double rainbow. What a lovely way to finish a fantastic day out!
Did you know…?
Roald Dahl was a spy and that James Bond was named after him!
Roald Dahl would now be 100 years old!
