# Swallows and Amazons

  ![Image of Swallows and Amazons](https://files.schudio.com/trawden-forest-primary-school-2/images/news/IMG_4115.JPG)  18 March 2022

In Reception we have been reading 10 Little Pirates.  The pirates are marooned on an island at the end so we pretended to be the pirates and thought about what we would need to survive.

We split into 2 teams and worked together to build a shelter.  Children had lots of good ideas for what we might need inside and used their imagination well to gather the necessities.

Unfortunately, then 1 team (led by that sneaky pirate Cap'n McGowan!) decided to spy on the others and try to raid them so then it was battle time!
