Lovely Lilies






Here are our class's lilies behind the flower show.
The Flower Show

On Wednesday we had our flower show.The whole school was involved. We all had to bring our own flowers and make three things. When they were finished they were taken to the multi purpose room for judging.The skills we had to learn were to have patience and to think about the colours and how big the flowers were to be arranged.
