Hot wax! Hot wax! Hot wax!
We were bursting with excitement as Mrs Adams was checking the role. Once the board will filled in we could head off up to the Picton Community Hall, next to the Creche.
Mr McCoy was waiting for us when we got there. We had met Mr McCoy once before when he taught us to make bread. He is from Bradshaw Park and he is helping us learn about our topic this term - Our Place in History.
We learned about the difference between dipping and casting candles.
Then we got to make our own dipped candle.
It was great fun, and we all were very careful and made good decisions. That's why no-one got burned and we all came home with lovely colourful candles which we made with our own hands.
