Reception class and Year 1 pupils at Chard School, together with youngsters from The Lawns Nursery, had a cracking time at their Easter craft afternoon last week.

They were joined by family members as they enjoyed lots of fun and creative activities including decorating eggs, making Easter cards and bunny ears, an Easter cooking session, along with an egg hunt and rolling competition in the playground.

The afternoon was rounded off wonderfully with teas, coffees and cakes in the school chapel.

Headteacher Katie Hill said: “It was fantastic to welcome so many family members to our Easter craft afternoon at the school, a great time was had by all.”
