Wildlife fun!
We are so lucky during Golden Time enjoying time in the outdoors. We've been making catapults, climbing trees and shaving wood with special tools to make sculptures. What fun!
Topic Homework!

We then looked at a…
Tribal Tales
We are really enjoying our topic so far. We've created fabulous cave drawings and compared different time periods within this era. The topic homework coming into school is also excellent!
