Today marked the exciting start of our Wool Craft Club, run by Mrs Mann and Mrs T. Hilferty. With a great turnout of enthusiastic pupils, the club began its journey into the world of wool crafts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mrs Mann led the group in learning basic knitting techniques, guiding pupils as they got hands-on with their first rows of stitches. Meanwhile, Mrs T. Hilferty introduced crochet, starting with simple crochet chains, and the pupils slowly picked up the rhythm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Wool Craft Club is off to a wonderful start, with pupils enjoying the opportunity to learn and create together. We can\u2019t wait to see the progress and creations that will come out of this new weekly tradition!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
