Soup DaySoup Day took place on Friday 30th in the Parent's Room. Again this year was a highly enjoyable day with parents peeling, chopping and cooking the vegetables to make delicious soup for the children. The children enjoyed the soup so much that they have asked it become a weekly instead of an annual event. I would like to thank all the parents who helped with the preparation of the soup we couldn't possibly have run this event without you and a special mention to Ujjal our chef for making the soup extra tasty!
gardening ClubAs the Spring is here Gardening Club has started again in our school. Every Tuesday 3 classes will get to attend Gardening Club. During Gardening Club they will learn about the plants and animals that live there. They will also learn how to plant, harvest and grow vegetables. Please check the notes and the Whiteboard on the yard to see when it is your child's turn to attend Gardening Club. You might like to come along and help out with your child's class but also to make sure they wear suitable clothes.
