Every year, Year 5/6 take part in a photography challenge at Deer Park. As they couldn’t do this , the teachers set them a task for a photography competition that they could do at home.
Here are just a selection of the entries we received – hope you enjoy them – we have some budding photographers in our midst!


Ollie has been reading Skelling and made some wonderful Skellig wings which we wanted to share with you .
Well done Oliver, we thought these were really good!

Harry sent us this lovely message this week. Well done Harry , we love it!
Its Harry. I set my wildlife camera up last night and left some of our dogs food out to see if anything came to eat it and it did! We have lots of videos of a hedgehog eating and exploring. Below is a collage I made of the best bits and I’ve sent you a close up to of it.
