Our story

On 21st February 2023, our Year 3 children travelled by train from Whitton to Richmond and by underground from Richmond to South Kensington to visit the Natural History Museum for their science topic on soil, rocks and fossils.

Before they travelled, our Year 3 Pupil Voice Representatives gave a presentation in a year group assembly about behaving both politely and safely when on public transport. Attached are notes from one child's presentation. The acrostic POLITE was also shared:

Please and Thank you

Only walk in the station and on the train

Listen to the adults with you

I-spy or 20 questions

Talk to friends quietly

Ensure you take everything when you get off

The children listened carefully in the assembly and followed the advice when travelling the next day.
