Welcome to Binsted CE Primary School

Eagles Class from Binsted School boarded the coach that would be taking them to the Curtis Museum, Alton. Eagles arrived at the small museum on time. They were told to sit down so they could get their instructions and rules.

 The class were taken around the museum so they could see all the artefacts and get a feel for the place.

 Then they had 15 minutes to wander around the museum to find the activities and have a closer look at all the artefacts.

These are some of the things the children saw: Stuffed animals, old clothes, cutlery, money, medals, models and lots more!

By Grace and Robyn F – Year 6

On the 4th of October 2011 Year 6 visited Queen Elizabeth Country Park. It was a very exciting trip and we learned so much. These are the activities we did:

In road safety we learnt that if you don’t have a seat belt on and there’s a crash the power of the impact makes you six times your own body weight which pushes you though the windscreen.

This has told us more about car safety.

We also went to fire rescue. We learnt how to check if there is fire on the other side of the door by touching the handle and one of Binsted’s own children, Robyn, showed us how to block smoke getting in through the bottom of the door. It was very exciting.

The estate at Sparsholt College covers 176 hectares and includes a working farm, a deer park, fishing lake, equine centre and so much more.

Campus tours for secondary school pupils who may be considering a land-based career or one of the courses offered at the College can also be arranged.  These tours are specifically related to college courses and countryside careers and are not in any way linked to the school curriculum.  The aim of these tours will be to provide pupils with an over-view of the College with a focus on areas of particular interest.

On the 8th of October 2011, year 6’s from Binsted School got up very early in the morning.

We got dressed and fed and then got into our cars and drove to Bentley School. There we met up with other year 6’s. The coach arrived at 6.10 a.m. and we all boarded it, children and a couple of adventurous parents. Our journey to France had begun.

We arrived at Folkstone at about 8.15 a.m., we bought some drinks and watched rugby on the TV that was in the canteen. We got on our coach again at about 8.45. We drove onto the euro train which would be taking us under the sea to France. It began to feel very hot in the coach as we couldn’t have the air-con on and we only had two air vents.
