F1 had a fantastic Hull Fair Day today. The children that went to the fair last week had so much to tell us about; what they saw, what they ate and the rides they went on. It sounded so much fun. Remi told us, “I go to Hull Fair with my Nana. I went (on) a wheel!” We tried to recreate some of the elements from the fair, which the children loved.
We started off by trying Brandy Snap. It was very crunchy and very sugary and most of us liked it very much!
Outside we had set up Hook a Duck. Phoebe told us that she went on Hook a Duck at the fair told us, “I ‘catched’ a little one and I ‘winned’ a bow and arrow!!”
We also made some ramps for our cars to whizz down, like they were travelling on a rollercoaster. Some times they travelled really fast and zoomed right off the end!
We played a game where you had to knock cans down by throwing a bean bag at them. The children were all keen to have a go and had to think about taking turns. They also worked hard to count how many cans they had knocked down.
Gracie told us all about going on the Ghost Train. “It was just like monsters on each door and you went through.” Amelia said that she didn’t go on it though, “coz it’s too scary”. Archie also knew that there were, “scary ghosts”. So we built our own train and the children took in turns to be ghosts and monsters and make scary sounds.
It really was a happy day, filled with chatter and fun. Well done everyone!
