A blast from the past!

Congratulations Bassett and Pigou Rooms for sharing their learning to us.  Each child had chosen a significant person from the past.  They were taught the skills of collating important and relevant information about their character and presented verbally in groups of three to the parent community.  To enhance the presentation each child and family took time to source clothing and accessories to represent the character.  It was very impressive and I’m sure you can identify many without looking at the caption.  A fine effort. Congratulations.
