We were mesmerised by the performance! ❤️

Wow everyone, Miss Brown was super impressed with how beautifully you all sat on the minibus on the way to the Panto. ☺️

The faces of pure happiness. The children have thoroughly enjoyed our Mini Mover sessions and we are very sad that we only have one more session the week after next with the lovely ladies that run our sessions.

We have made a start to making some decorations for our classroom. These activities are great for developing fine motor skills as well as hand and eye coordination. Our classroom is going to look very festive!
