Mr D organised a vist from Up, Up and Away Hot Air Balloon adventure tours to kickstart the term. The crew demonstrated how the hot air balloon is filled with hot air from the gas burner, while the whole school viewed from the perimeter of the field. Unfortunately the West Melton wind was not cooperative and the balloon was not able to be flown - however several students were able to experience standing in the the basket and using the gas burner. Even though it didn't fly, it was still a great experience for all children to view the sheer size of a hot air balloon!!
