Our History topic is “The Gunpowder Plot” so of course we couldn’t miss out on having our very own Bonfire in the forest at school!

We started the day by making chocolate apples, something which people have on the actual Bonfire Night in November. Then in the afternoon we went down to the forest and launched our fireworks that we had made the day before. We created all of the firework noises ourselves so was as noisy as a real firework display!! Bang! Screech! Whizzz!!

Then we went into the tent and sat around a campfire to sing and eat our apples. Mr Shayne very kindly helped some of us to make some popcorn over the fire and we enjoyed some popcorn with our hot chocolates!

After feeling very cosy and very full, we left the hut and Mr Shayne launched some rockets for us to watch! We were in total awe and loved our Bonfire Afternoon!

Golden Eagles, see if you can tell your family all about the Gunpowder Plot because you can remember so much and it’s amazing!
