St Andrew’s Day30th November

as celebrated in Poland

The children of Mrs Paveley’s class learnt about the celebrations linked to Poland’s St Andrew’s Day

The children started with a key ……

…… and were curious as to what the melted wax would do when poured through the hole.

The children wrote: ‘We poured the wax through the keyhole and different things appeared’

‘When the hot wax hit the water it made amazing shapes. But it was more exciting when we looked at them in the dark ………..’

We used a torch to look at our shapes and tried to read the future.We thought this was the best one – Agatha was going to grow into an elegant

lady with her hat and handbag.

We think this was saying that Christopher was going to live on an island somewhere.

And we think that someone, in the future, is going to meet up with the Loch Ness Monster ……..

The boys were not too sure about this activity – they didn’t want to know who they were going to marry!

But they had a go anyway!

The girls had more fun!

Lastly we used our shoes to tell us who would marry first…………

It turned into a race between the boys and girls……….

The boys kept their cool and won in the end but you can see that everyone was happy.

A BIG thank you to Mrs Paveley’s group for taking part and being such sports!
