Pan's people

A combination of World Book Day (see here), Peter Pan Week (see here) and a visit to Braintree District Museum (see here) meant a veritable frenzy of dressing up for school and nursery.

First, on March 6th, came Thomas's visit to Braintree museum where he saw a Victorian classroom, wore the back straightening device and came home with a slate to write on. As that was also World Book Day Martha went to nursery dressed as one of her favourite book characters.

Then on Friday 7th, as part of Peter Pan week Thomas's school took part in the Big Time Rhyme and the whole school read an extract from Peter Pan in Scarlet. So, everyone at school was encouraged to dress up as a character from Peter Pan - Thomas chose the eponymous hero and Martha stuck with Tinkerbell.
