As part of their learning in English, children in Launchpad explored the story ‘The Enormous Turnip’ through a multisensory activity tasting cooked turnip just like in the final scene of the book. This hands-on experience helped bring the story to life and supported discussion around characters, sequencing, and language.
We are PROUD to be a school where every child can engage with the curriculum in meaningful and memorable ways.
