Friday 06 January:
It’s party time! Today we celebrate the end of a festive holiday of fun, games and friendship. We will make a healthy pizza to enjoy, and play music for a game of musical chairs and dance to release some energy and have an all around good time! And, of course, there will be sports and recreational games to enjoy!
