The Puy de Vichatel

After our long journey to the Auvergne we had our picnic lunch and headed up the Puy de Vichatel.
When we were in the crater we performed a play, a sequence of haiku poems, and a song to each other. What a great natural amphitheatre!

Here are some photos of the walk:

 Here's a video of 4B's haiku poem sequence, filmed in the crater:

And here is the route we took on Google maps, recorded with Endomondo:


When we got to the centre, it was time for dinner! There's been no time to write our postcards tonight - we'll have to do it tomorrow night!

Have a look at Year 3's blog post too!

    Fabulous to see your pictures Y3 & 4. The corridor is very quiet without you. Have a wonderful time tomorrow morning finding out lots about volcanoes. You'll be experts. I hope you’re looking after your lovely teachers too.
