Vin's Learning Journey

We've been up to a mix of things, seeing friends, playing lego (of course!) and a mixture of learning things. We've read a lot of cool books, and done some science experiments.

We visited Bedgebury to have a go at their interactive app based on the poem the Hunting of the Snark. There were some lovely autumn colours. We went for quite a long walk afterwards too to make a potion for Bowser which required a lot of autumny ingredients. Vin recreated lots of n...
