The 'Mix It Yummy' baking project group have become experts at making gingerbread this year. Today they worked cooperatively to create mini gingerbread houses; discovering that icing makes 'the best sticky glue' to hold the pieces together.#childledproject @STPHILIPSCE @WeAreBDAT

Our Nursery children are very interested in the wild flowers growing in the garden this week. Therefore, we created a simple provocation of flowers, pens, water colour paints, photographs of flowers & the beautiful 'Footpath flowers' book. @WeAreBDAT @STPHILIPSCE @EarlyExcellence
