Well done Zayd and Buddy

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Wow! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I have a massive smile on my face because look what I found in the debeauvoirprimaryschool@gmail.com inbox!

Not one, but two amazing Robin Hood wanted posters!

Buddy's poster looks ready to be pinned to a tree in Sherwood Forest!

Zayd's poster is a colourful creation that even has bubble writing!

Well done Zayd and Buddy! You're posters have made my day.

Thank-you for the photographs of the lifecycle of violas - they're fantastic!

Another plant that's been growing in our edible playground is cut-and-come-again salad leaves. Learn more about them on the RHS website

Since we've been at home something I've been missing from school is our delicious salad selection at school. My favourite is the grated carrot salad. I tried to make my own version at home using these recipes;

Robin Hood Wanted Poster

Do you remember making the old paper for our Samuel Pepys diaries when we were learning about the Great Fire of London?

Today I'd like you to make a Robin Hood wanted poster that the Sheriff of Nottingham might have put up to try and catch Robin Hood.  

Here's a video on how to make the paper. Ask your adult at home to help with the hot water.

Once your paper is dry start making your poster!

Remember to include a description of what Robin Hood looks like as well as what he has done to upset the Sheriff of Nottingham. The more detail the better!

I'd love to see photos of your posters if you e-mail them to;
