Primary 6 & Mrs Thom, Netherlee PS
Wednesday, December 17, 2008
"In five minutes, our primary 6 class managed to get the first 16 stations correct. We felt that it was tricky but a lot of fun. Some were frustrated that if they got one answer wrong then every other answer was also wrong.

We really enjoyed today's challenge!"
