Year 3 Birch Shared Learning and Shared Lunch
Thank you to everyone who attended today. All children had such a good time and really enjoyed themselves. We hope adults enjoyed themselves too. We made oracle bones out of clay today!

We then had some delicious lunch and all children loved sharing their lunch time with their adult.
