What a wonderful end to our half term with a fun, silly Halloween themed day. Just what we all needed! All the children looked amazingly frightful and spooky – they loved every minute of the day! Safe to say every genre of Halloween fancy dress was covered and the teachers got involved too. Spooky activities…
On Thursday, Lyndhurst’s poetry recital finalists faced a very daunting challenge – performing their poem in Mr. Rudkin’s office, in front of a jury, LIVE on Microsoft Teams!
