Mulberry had a brilliant time in Stratford today.
As soon as we came out of the station we spotted an old, red steam train like we had learned about in our transport topic.
We listened to a story about Hooter the alien. On his alien planet all of the stories had disappeared! We needed to help him by making up some stories of our own.
We explored the story trail to look for inspiration. There was a palace, a deep, dark cave and plenty of fancy dress costumes.
We made up a story about a dragon called Draggy, a wolf called Wolfy and a snake called Spike!
After a delicious lunch indoors we had some time to explore the adventure playground and enjoy the beautiful, sunny day!
We walked back to the station where the children really enjoyed watching the central line train arriving and departing whilst we waited for our train back to school.
There were lots of happy (but tired) children at the end of a long, enjoyable day.
An enormous thank you to all the parent helpers!
