Damian's huge sunflower.

I bought my sunflower to school. I showed my sunflower to everyone at school.

A baby hedgehog came to visit us.

Mrs Fortis bought Cooper's baby hedgehog to school. He is very small and cute. When he is hungry he has special milk and feeds from a dropper. Sometimes he makes snuffling sounds if he can smell the milk or wants a feed.He has toes just like us.
