Running a cafe is a hard job!

Posted by Alex Morgan on February 27, 2011

Year 2 ended their learning on the Jobs People Do, by running a cafe for their parents and friends.  The children took on all the roles in the cafe – they’d already cooked the cakes on the menu – waiters and waitresses, sign and menu makers, till staff….  We hope our customers enjoyed their trip to our cafe!
