What a lovely end to a very busy term!

They were delicious!

 - Write and record a response to the invitation.

Have a look at the pictures below to see how the children are getting on with their tasks!

ATTENTION!!!!!

Something crazy has happened in the classroom this evening and was caught on the cameras! What could it be? Where has it come from? Where could it be leading to? Hopefully the children can help the adults in Year 2 solve the problem!
