Class 2025

Today we had a lovely treat. Mrs Hodgson had been telling us about stir up Sunday in our assembly and this afternoon we helped her make a Christmas cake. We helped weigh out the ingredients and then everyone had a stir and made a wish.

We had a great time in PE practising a variety of skills this week.

Today in history we had great fun! We learned about what the Romans used to wear as well as some strange facts about taking care of their hair. Did you know they used to apply bear fat and hippopotamus ashes to encourage their hair to grow? We then had a practical session of tying togas on our…
