Half Term might only just be over but the Easter holidays are just around the corner, with just a five week term to go. We do love Easter here and always do an Easter Egg Hunt. Over the years we’ve done some indoors and some outdoors depending on the weather that year. The outdoor ones […]
New Year Craft: Making a Celebration Jar
I can’t quite believe that we are nearing the end of 2017 and 2018 is on the horizon. How was 2017 for you? Here there have been some marvelous highs and lots of lows. It’s been one of those years really. What I am really pleased about though is that at the start of 2017 […]
Back to school craft with Bostik

We spent some time at the weekend doing a bit of craft. We used a range of things from Bostik around the theme of dragons. Here are some of the things we used. There was a specific request to make “a really huge dragon” which did seem like a bit of a challenge, so we settled […]
