Sleepover

Aariv and his mattress that was almost as big as he was!
Thanks for the help Angelo!

To end off our fabulous theme about Pim the aardvark Gill and I organised a sleepover at school. We made our classroom into a burrow where we were to spend the night. 

Everyone was so excited and we were counting down the days. At last it arrived! Sadly the weather did not play along so at the eleventh hour we had to change our outdoor nocturnal activities to indoor ones! 

The rain did not dampen our spirits, even the thunderstorm did not frighten us as we tucked up in our warm cozy burrow!

We had lots of fun, and both Gill and I were so impressed at how well behaved everybody was. 

Aariv climbing down the burrow entrance.
The competition was to see how far you could crawl without touching
the chair.

Can you draw a termite. Each number on the dice represented a body part.

Face painting - Mikhaeel and Nikhil making cheetah faces.

Pin the tongue on the aardvark!

Snakes and ladders, the game inspired by Pims meeting with the baby python.

Sparkler fun - lighting the quills of the porcupine!

Even Mrs Sweet turned into a cheetah!

Off 'hunting' whilst there was a break in the weather.
We used glow sticks to add to the fun, thanks to Mrs Dowlath.

Termites weren't very appetising so we had hot dogs and marshmallows instead!

Delish!

Girls all ready for bed! Jessica was the first one asleep.

Five o'clock wake up and hot chocolate!

Most parents arrived bright and early the next day, in fact nearly everyone was gone before the rest of of the school arrived for their final day of term 2. What a lovely way to end the very long term.
