They’ve played with a zoetrope (ask them to tell you about the moving picture that they saw), spinning tops and a Jacobs ladder. They’ve completed bear and toy hunts and even made their own Rice Krispie person! Fantastic […]

A big thank you to our first mystery reader, Alex’s dad. He brought in a book by our last author of the term, Julia Donaldson. The children sat beautifully and really enjoyed the story.
