Children In Need 2020
We've had a great day in Kingfisher class, doing lots of Children in Need themed activities. In literacy, we learned about the history of Children In Need. In maths, we cracked a Children In Need themed code breaker. We also all got very sweaty whilst taking part in the Joe Wicks PE challenge. In the afternoon, we enjoyed some mindfulness activities and eating our delicious cakes from the cake stall. Take a look at the slideshow below.

E.g. 37 m and 30cm = 37.3 m = 373cm= 3730mm
