Building a Sukkah
Today we learned about how Jewish people celebrate harvest. They build Sukkahs - temporary huts in which Jews may eat, sleep or spend time in during their week long festival of Sukkot. We tried building our own and made sure that there was a way that the stars and sky could be seen.

Autumn Walk
We explored the school grounds to find out what happens in autumn. We went to the horse chestnut tree and spotted all the colours that the leaves are turning. We also picked up something that we could draw back in class.
