Each class had a chance to sample some of the food. We also invited parents in to visit their children's classroom and many stayed to try the delicious food that had been brought in. All in all it was a fabulous day and we are so thankful for our parents for all their work in making Mother Tongue week incredibly special.&nbsp;<br /></div>]]></content:encoded></item></channel></rss>
