This week we’ve been taking part in the #anfomhar project – an amazing way to start our Twitter adventures! Here’s a short summary of the contribution made by 5th class this week! 2nd class also took part in the project – you can listen to their excellent podcast here and see their helicopter spinning Animoto here.
