Kingfishers
To end our dinosaur topic, the children in Kingfishers Class showed their grown ups their dinosaur models, clay fossils and dinosaur moving pictures. They were very excited and were able to explain what they had been learning about in class this half term. Well done Kingfishers!

The children were ready for their next cooking club session. The children listened carefully to instructions, washed their hands and put an apron on.
