A Very Special School Trip

One of our art enrichment activities was made especially special by the Princess of Wales joining us on our coach journey, as well as accompanying us on the gallery trail and drawing activity.

We were invited to take part in the National Portrait Gallery’s Bobeam Tree Trail. The Bobeam Tree Trail, based on work by Catherine’s Royal Foundation Centre for Early Childhood, was created using the Shaping Us Framework. We are exploring aspects of the framework within our (recently graded outstanding) Early Years Provision.

The children had a wonderful time drawing and talking to the princess, as well as exploring many of the portraits within the gallery.
