Last week the younger children in school started the day off with a Joe Wicks PE lesson. They then played a range of different PE games which they thoroughly enjoyed. For the afternoon activity the children constructed their own bubble machines and made their own bubble solution. The children then used their bubble machines to make ‘bubble snakes’. The children loved seeing who could make the longest bubble snake and compared the length of their snake to their friends!
