We started our half term with a wow day in which we tried different Australian foods. We made anzac biscuits, pavlovas and vegemite sandwitches. The children tried them all and recorded whether they liked them or not on a taste report.

We made some dot painting, painted bush fires, made koalas out of news paper and located Australia on the map.

We then explored Australian animals, read stories with different animals, wrote facts about them all and made it into a book. We finished up the topic by going to the London Zoo where we saw Wombats and Emus!
