Happy Easter to everyone at whittonstall xxx
What a busy week Class 1 have had celebrating Easter. We’ve used our creative skills to mark-make, create cards, pictures and headbands. We investigated in the Easter tray to find out which eggs were magnetic and we went on an Easter hunt on the field where we also enjoyed the chocolate nests we made. What a treat!
Have an amazing Easter break everybody! 🐣🐰🌼🥚 ... See MoreSee Less
