Her new club is at Baysgarth leisure centre starting from 14th January on a Thursday. For ages 5-10 it is 5pm to 6pm and for 10-16 4pm to 5pm. The cost is £2.80.

Global Education Day

Global Education Day  Global Education Day

On India day we ate some Indian food and I liked some of the food but it was a bit spicy. The person that came in was called Else and she made us some food like popadoms and a dip to go with it. After that we did some research about India and the spices and some facts about saris that are a long piece of clothing that you can put all around your body and over your head.

India has got lots of spices
New food we tried
Did anyone like it?
I did
Another great day like Indian day

India day was the best
New scrumptious food we tried
Delicious food made by a lady called Else
In one day we discovered India
And enjoyed the day we did

Not so long ago it was World Book Day which was famously fun. We dressed up as some of our favourite book characters. Nathanael won best costume for our class as Oliver Twist and second place was Charlotte as Pocahontas.

DT Day

Making models  The finished model

In January it was DT Day. Charlotte brought in lots of boxes including a giant nappy box from her brother Jamie. She built an amazing zebra which died sadly a few weeks ago in a wheelie bin. Harry, Jack and Kane made a gigantic robot which was a couple of inches smaller than them. Everybody had loads of fun and at the end of the day we looked at the whole school's designs.
