Tag Rugby Tournament
On Wednesday afternoon we headed to Thomas Mills to take part in the Tag Rugby Tournament. There were 9 schools taking part in two groups, with Earl Soham entering two teams again this year. Both teams showed themselves to be good sportsmen and acquitted themselves well. The B team came third in their group and the A team joint second in theirs. Though not quite enough to secure a medal place, both teams learnt a lot from the experience and had a good afternoon of sport in the spring sunshine.
Enjoy the photos!

Sutton Hoo Visit
Following a relaxing half-term break, we set out this morning, a group of budding archaeologists, to sample the exciting Anglo-Saxon discoveries at Sutton Hoo. The children began by exploring the exhibition room where they saw a replica of the famous helmet, learnt how to write in runes and even got a chance to dress up in costume.
From there, we went on to examine the burial mound, where we found out about the last resting place of the king of all the Angles, Raedwald.
After lunch the children got hands on with history, handling a range of artefacts and using their archaeological skills to work out what they might have been used for.
To round off the day, we let off steam in the adventure playground. It was a fabulous day, with lots of learning and even more fun. Thank you to The National Trust and their super volunteers for opening the site especially for us.
