The Secondary School Experience Week was a great way to end Year 6 at Hartsbourne. It was really helpful if you’re going to Bushey Meads in September, because you get a head-start on what it will be like. However, even if you aren’t going to Bushey Meads, it’s still helpful so you know what secondary school will be like.

I loved going to Bushey Meads School, the secondary school in our Trust. This term we were able to use their catering suite to make healthy muffins. I felt like a proper chef and it was a great experience for me.

It was great to watch the Bushey Meads Theatre Company’s performance of William Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream. The storyline was accompanied by a string orchestra (who also happened to play the mechanicals within the play) and singing and dancing fairies.
