On Wednesday we shall be going to Woodlands for the first time, so please ensure we have wellington boots to wear as it can get very muddy.

Jambo!
We have really enjoyed taking part in Cultural Week and have lots of interesting facts about Kenya. We have had lots of fun making necklaces, fruit kebabs, drumming and taking part in an African dance.
We also looked carefully at patterns on fabrics and made our own patterned dough tiles.
We enjoyed dressing in colourful clothes and trying to raise money for toilets in Africa.
Have lots of fun in the holidays and keep safe.
