Tribal Tales

Take a moment to step outside and stand quietly and still. Turn off all your technology and try to forget the modern world. Imagine this place 5000 years ago. What would you have seen? Head back to prehistoric times to gather berries and hunt down dinner. Unearth ancient objects and visit astonishing mystical monuments that reveal the secrets of an ancient time. Learn how the people of Britain developed over thousands of years, from the Stone Age to the Roman invasion. Work as a tribe to build a seasonal monument to celebrate the coming of spring. Then sit quietly and reflect, waiting for the sunrise. What tribal tales will you have to tell?

enhanced pathway

At Queen Emma’s Primary School, we are dedicated to nurturing the whole child through a well-rounded education that extends beyond traditional academics. We are excited to have a bespoke Enhanced Pathway to ensure our pupils with specific Special Educational Needs have the best possible provision. It is tailored for pupils who require specialised support that goes beyond what can be offered at the high level our students deserve in a mainstream classroom. Alongside our curriculum, we offer life skills lessons and a comprehensive Social, Emotional, and Mental Health (SEMH) curriculum created by the Mulberry Bush School.

Our approach emphasises the development of essential skills such as resilience, self-awareness, and emotional regulation, ensuring children are equipped to succeed both inside and outside the classroom. Through our outreach program, students have the opportunity to learn in mainstream classrooms for part of the day, allowing them to benefit from a diverse educational experience while still receiving the targeted support they need.

 

memorable experience - term 1

History Squad visited us on Monday 16th September for a Stone Age to Bronze Age workshop. In this incredible workshop, we started by exploring the world-class collection of Neolithic and Paleolithic artefacts. We safely held real Stone Age items, such as teeth and bones from animals like the cave bear and mammoth, flint hand axes and arrowheads, antler tools, and much more!
Afterwards, we enjoyed a Stone Age game involving clay balls and throwing.
We finished by going on a scavange around the hall to find edible items, who knew you could eat dandelion! See some photos below.
