Pumpkin Soup

Today we listened to the story 'Pumpkin Soup' and did some super writing about the story. We went outside and made pretend pumpkin soup in the water tray, it was really fun! We also collaged pictures of pumpkins using different seeds and had a go at drawing a pumpkin using pastels. We also learnt some facts about pumpkins.
