Reception (Hepworth and Klee) and Nursery (Kapoor) Events

Some amazing news!!! Today (17th April 2013) the postman brought us some very special chicken eggs. We looked at them carefully and discussed being gentle. Then we put them in our incubator to keep them warm. The farmer has told us that they should hatch in 19 days!!! We will be updated these pages regularly so WATCH THIS SPACE!!!
