Visits from:

As well as there being the opportunities to attend visits away from the school we also strive to enhance the children's experience at Upton Heath by bringing in people from the community.

During the year we will have visits from the following people:

The Pandemonium Theatre Company  Key Strings Music Workshop Artist in Residence The Fire Brigade The Police Force - Stranger Danger

Safety on the railways An Ornithologist - talks on garden birds Upton High School Band Upton High School Drama Group

As well as these visits, individual teachers often arrange their own visits from people in the community. This may be to do with someone giving a talk on a topic the children are studying or to run workshops such as in dance, drama, sport, crafts etc.
