 Baby Acorns set off on a magical bus ride to London, making their own red bus and singing “The wheels on the bus” and built a giant “London bridge” from mattresses and giant soft shapes which they tried crossing by crawling/jumping/running. On Friday, the children enjoyed a tea party in the garden while reading books with Peter Rabbit.

Shiny Stars pretended to be detectives and solved mysteries, just like James Bond. Next, they learnt about cooking and pretended for a day to be Jamie Oliver. Also, they investigated and tested bridges within their construction area and read books based on British characters such as Paddington, Spot and Peppa Pig.

Early Explorers looked at an atlas and located the UK, learnt about the countries of Scotland, Ireland, England and Wales, then completed their own map with labels for each country. They  looked at a presentation about symbols of Britain and discussed red telephone boxes and what they were used for, finding out how the first telephone was invented by Alexander Bell and how phones have changed over the last 50 years. Next, they learned about The Beatles and found out how music has been an important way for people from UK and the world over to express their hopes and dreams.
