Here are Y6 doing their mini enterprise.

The pupils in Y6 decide what to make or buy to sell. They set up stalls. The stall that makes the most money is the winner. They sell ice creams, toys, jewellery, sweets etc. You can also try and guess the name of the teddy.
Los alumnos deciden que quieren vender. Organizan puestos y venden juguetes, helados,  golosinas, pasteles y bisuteria etc. Los que ganan el mas dinero ganan el concurso! Podeis tambien intentar adivinar el nombre del osito de peluche!

Soon Y6 will be going to their new secondary schools. Pronto sexto iran a sus nuevos colegios secundarios

The Roscon de Reyes cake. The Kings Crown Cake

On 6th January Spanish families gather to open their presents from the Three Kings and to eat the King's Crown Cake. It's a round cake with a hole in the middle and has candied fruit on the top. Some cakes are filled with cream and some are plain. The family cut the cake up. Whoever gets the piece of cake with the dried bean in it has to pay for the whole cake. Whoever gets the pot figure of one of the kings gets to wear the crown all day!

El 6 de enero, las familias espanolas se reunen para abrir sus regalos de los Reyes y para comer El Roscon de Reyes. Es un pastel redondo con un agujero en el centro. Algunos pasteles estan rellenados de nata y otros sin nata. La familia corta el Roscon. La persona que tiene la haba en su trozo del pastel tiene que pagar por el Roscon. La persona que tiene la figura del Rey puede llevar la corona todo el dia!
