Sock Puppet Competition

Following on from our trip to Norsewood (Photos coming soon) there is a link to the competition in my useful websites list.  Thought this might be a good holiday activity for those children hanging around at home in the wet weather.  Have fun!  We will also make puppets early next term.

Look out for some fun photos from Norsewood.

NORSEWOOD trip details.

Week 7, Term 3

Norsewood Trip:  I am so excited!!!  I went to Norsewood to plan our trip in detail and came home full of ideas that I never knew existed!  See the note in the bookbag!  The stories the children have written are very creative.  They have characters from the Norwegian culture and the Maori culture.  Can't wait to see them published.  We are looking at making puppets soon too. The children are lucky to have Mrs Dodd for 3 days this week.  Great to hear about good manners.
