# Hocus Pocus

   25 February 2016   [Reception](https://www.boarshawprimary.co.uk/blog/category/reception-1)

This week Foundation have been reading the story Hansel and Gretel as part of our topic about witches and wizards.

The children have been acting out the story in our story shed. We have had some very nasty witches and some fantastic acting!
