This is our 1960 timeline.....

We were lucky enough to experience an actual 1960s MINI Cooper which had been owned by none other than John Cooper, the famous rally driver! 

​

Mrs Caroline Neuddeg (Governor) talked to the children about her childhood memories and experiences from the 1960s.

In Art, we explored the work of Peter Thorpe and created amazing space pictures using pastels and poster paint. 

We also studied the work of Pop Arts Andy Warhol and Roy Lichtenstein.
