Easter Family Fun

Posted on

Hi everyone,

Just wanted to say a huge well done for making it to the end of term and all of the hard work you have been doing at home. The Den staff are all so proud of you!

We will not be setting formal work for the next two weeks but feel free to choose from any of the family fun activities below:

  • Have an egg hunt around your house or garden.
  • Base some Easter cookies or cakes- see Evie’s photographs for inspiration!
  • Hold an egg race against your family- who is the winner?
  • Watch an Easter film (e.g Hop).
  • Build a Den inside or outside.
  • Have some egg-speriments (egg experiments) how high can you drop an egg without it smashing? What can you find around your house to protect it from damage?
  • Eat chocolate!

As ever, don’t forget to save your photographs to the school blog- we love to see what you are getting up to.

Easter cooking fun activity

Posted on April 1st, 2020

Hi everyone,

Here is Miss Plimmer’s eldest daughter Evie being resourceful- she was given an early Easter egg as a special treat and she decided to melt it down to make chocolate Easter nest cakes.

All you need is:

An Easter Egg

Weetabix (or any other cereal in your cupboard)

Cake cases

Evie loved breaking the chocolate into pieces to put in a jug and breaking the weetabix cereal down in a large bowl. She added the melted chocolate to the cereal mix and then placed into individual cake cases. She then put them in the fridge to chill.

They were delicious!
What other fantastic Easter themed cooking can you do at home?

Remember to post your pictures to the blog for us all to see.
