A Gorgeous Autumn Day

This week's meeting was on the 1st day of November, but you wouldn't have known it by the weather!  It was gloriously sunny (for the most part), so we all took advantage of the little play park next to the village hall again.  The children spent hours playing on the slides, swings and climbing trees.  We did manage to sit down for long enough in the hall to make some paper gliders, which involved folding, cutting, decorating, attaching a paper clip and then letting them float down to the ground (picture below).  They worked really well!  A quick stop for lunch and then back to the park to enjoy the autumn sunshine again.

We will be meeting again next Tuesday.  Please do contact us at tauntonhomeeducation@yahoo.com if you would like to find out more.
