Year 1 had an exciting start to their new topic as some urgent news arrived about a strange sighting in the Green Garden. The girls were very excited, and brave, to venture into the garden and follow a set of clues and some footprints, left for them by woodland animals, which finally led them to the … Gruffalo!!!
The girls then enjoyed listening to, and joining in with, the Gruffalo story whilst enjoying some tasty ‘Owl ice-cream’. They even had the chance to interview a real live Gruffalo and ask him lots of questions. The girls now know that the Gruffalo has a poisonous wart on the end of his nose because he ate poisonous berries in the woods when he was little; what a naughty Gruffalo! The girls now know that they should never eat any strange berries from trees.
