Hello year 5. We hope you are well. It was good to hear from one or two of you in the week. Joel made Mrs Anderson laugh when he told her that he had been having water fights using Calpol syringes with his brother.
He suggested that Mrs Anderson try it, but unfortunately her children are all grown up, and she doesn’t have any Calpol syringes. She did, however, have a hosepipe and this week had a self-distancing water fight against the neighbours. They had a super-soaker gun – who do you think came off worse!? Remember to ASK your neighbours first, before trying this!?
