Earlier in the month Year 6 did an Eco photography challenge... They were asked to take photos from different perspectives in nature, e.g. how a bee might view a flower 🐝 Their results are brilliant! https://t.co/aB2OBWM3CE #Kingshott #Hitchin #EcoSchool https://t.co/jFdXpmuPds

This morning the Year 1’s had the wonderful experience of meeting Safari Stu and his animals. From creepy giant cockroaches to crawly tarantulas, to slithering pythons, they squealed with delight! 🐍🕷️ https://t.co/Bc3G1CiX1D #Kingshott #Hitchin #PrePrep https://t.co/guSaTPzYGt

Meet Pepe, the newest addition to the Richardson family. He was born a week ago last Thursday but had a rough start. Mrs Richardson spent three days nursing him with a bottle after milking his mum (oh the wonders of YouTube tutorials!) and he is now doing really well. 😍 https://t.co/FEvBqAuDUe
