Another busy day in Reception! 🍁 Today, we learned all about Harvest and shared our new story, *The Pumpkin Thief*! We still haven't figured out who stole all the pumpkins, but we had so much fun designing and making traps to try and catch them! What a fantastic day of learning! Ask your little ones tonight if they have any clues about who the pumpkin thief might be! 🕵️‍♂️🍂
