We have had a roaring start to the new term in Ducklings, as dinosaurs arrived in our classroom. The children were full of excitement and curiosity as they discovered all the prehistoric surprises waiting for them. Our little explorers became palaeontologists, carefully using brushes to uncover dinosaur bones in our excavation area.

Thank you parents for the AMAZING costumes and accessories! We had lots of fun today learning all about Victorian school rules before practising our handwriting in the Victorian style, both on paper and on slate with chalk. We drew and played hopscotch, a Victorian playground game still enjoyed today, and sampled some delicious Victorian sponge cake - named after Queen Victoria of course!

All the children had a great time!
