Term 3

Week 6

Week ending 13.2.20

What a busy week we have had!

On Tuesday we had a visit from Ian from KIC Theatre, whose knowledge and creativity inspired the children to perform drama based on The Great Fire of London. On Thursday we had a visit from Firefighter Anna from Kent Fire Brigade, who told the children about the work of the Fire Service and reminded them to never play with matches and to ask parents to check their smoke alarms on a weekly basis.

After Half Term we will be designing and making Fire Engines. Please collect small boxes (children's shoe box size) and any other re-cycling materials you think might be suitable. Thank you!

Have a wonderful relaxing break!
