Well Mrs Mather certainly planned the weather for the infant arctic mission on Tuesday, all the children had a thoroughly enjoyable time testing which materials were suitable for snowy conditions.
Our Reception and Nursery children baked some delicious cakes on Tuesday to sell in order to aid their money topic. The smells coming from the kitchen were amazing. Thank you to all who bought a cake.
