Friday 17th June

Class 4 have had an exciting week this week. On Tuesday we walked with Class 3 to Thorington and watched the Aviva Women’s Cycle Tour go past. It was great fun the motorbike police all put their sirens on for us and waved. We were amazed at how fast the cyclists passed us and how they could all ride so closely together. We shouted ‘allez! allez! at the tops of our voices and had a brilliant time. We also had a visit from a Bungay High School teacher who helped us to design our own sweets and wrappers for them with advertising which we enjoyed a great deal.
