St Nicholas Wednesday Brownies have been working towards achieving The Number Fun Badge alongside a team from Explore Learning. They designed and costed a new bedroom and found out about Roman Numerals and Money To Plan A Banquet For An Emperor. The girls also had fun creating portraits of themselves using numbers to create the features of their face.
