We have been in role as Antarctic explorers today! We have built shelters to keep us safe from an Antarctic blizzard, and even thought about ways to keep ourselves entertained whilst inside our shelters - ranging from painting, drums and even booby traps!

Oak Class had a fab time using different skills to shape and form patterns with play dough! We can't wait to use these skills to make our animals out of clay. 

It was a week of firsts in our final week before Christmas! 
We attended our first school panto, our first celebration assembly (some of us even performed a dance in front of the whole school) and watched our first Rock Steady concert!
