Gressenhall Trip
We visited Gressenhall for the 'Once Upon a Time' workshop day. We were introduced to many fairy tale characters and helped Cinderella solve the mystery of the lost fairy tale items. We helped Cinderella clean the cottage, milked the cows, painted the house, took a trip on a tractor, supported Jack on his beanstalk quest, made potions with the Wicked Witch and looked for clues in the post office. We had a fabulous day!
Autumn 1
We will be exploring fairy tales and ‘The Story of Pinocchio’. Additionally, relating to our History topic, we will be writing a report based on toys from the past.
