The Wheels on the Bus

The Year 2s had a wonderful day at the National Motor Museum in Gaydon, Warwickshire. They started off by being car designers, making their own Lego model and then tested it down three different tracks to investigate durability and speed.  They then went on a tour of the exhibition to see a car cut in half, a Lego life-size car and one of the oldest surviving buses, Bessie. We got dressed up in Victorian clothing and climbed aboard for a sing-song. We finished the amazing day with a tour of the interactive car section and to see a replica of the very first car ever built, the Patent Benz Motorwagen built by Karl Benz. There was so much to see. Sadly, we didn’t get time for it all and as the coach pulled away a few children had already nodded off!
