Children in Need Celebrations
Year 6 have had an absolutely amazing day, celebrating Children in Need and raising money for a FANTASTIC charity! They took part in a 25 minute scavenger hunt, where they had to find hidden Pudsey bears around school! Miss Louca had a list of clues which were given 1 by 1 to each group and they worked together as a team to hunt them around school. The children had so much fun doing this and what a great way for them to raise money! Well done Year 6!
