Today we had the incredible opportunity to Skype with Mrs. Pimperton’s Year 3/4 classroom all the way from Ashby de la Zouch, England!! We were all so very excited. Each classroom prepared information and photos to share about our schools, town/country, hobbies, money system, sports, flag, climate, famous people and famous places.
