Blue Class
Jelly Baby Challenge. Every child was given a jelly baby. Throughout the morning they had to look after their baby and create a profile for him or her. We designed their favourite meals and thought about their likes and dislikes. We even took our babies out to play! The real challenge of course was to do all this whilst resisting the urge to eat the jelly baby! We had a lot of fun and most of the class managed (we lost two to temptation 😀)
8th July. We all had a fabulous day at Warwick Castle. We learnt all about swords and weapons (we were able to handle them which was great). We met a princess who taught us to bow and curtesy and read us a story. We also watched the bowman show and saw the birds of prey show. We had so much fun!!
