Bradley's Grandmere visited us and taught us a French song. It is sung to the tune of 'In a Cottage in a Wood'. Here are the words:-
Dans sa maison un grand cerf Regarde par la fenetre Un lapin venir a lui Et frapper ainsi Cerf! Cerf! Ouvre moi! Ou le chasseur me tuera Lapin, lapin, entre et viens Me server la main. |  |

This term we have been very busy settling in to our new class. We have been learning all sorts of different things, especially about 'The Three Little Pigs'. At the moment we are starting to get ready for Christmas, so watch this space for photographs of our celebrations! Here are some pictures of us in the Foundation Unit when we are hard at work.
Earlier in the term we went blackberry picking down the lane near to the school.
When we came back to school we baked some blackberry buns - they were absolutely delicious!!
