Pakistan Afternoon

On Thursday 20th October we had Pakistan Afternoon. The afternoon was a celebration of all the children's hard work this half term. The children had an important role in setting up for the day as they had to design and create a market stall for our Pakistan market. The children really enjoyed themselves and did a wonderful job. There were many parents who joined us for the afternoon and the feedback received was brilliant. We are very proud of the children in Year 3 and 4. Thank you to all those who supported us to prepare for this day. Here are some photographs that capture the day's events:

A little boy was holding his old wooden catapult.He had a very big stone in it.He was aming for the small birds.That were on top of the garage roof.Unfortunately he let it go and the birds flew away.And the stone hit the garage roof and for this reason he got some grey paper and went outside and tried to cover it up.
