Merlins had a visitor yesterday, a regular visitor to our school, Tracy. She came to teach Merlins about labyrinths: how they can be created and their usefulness. The children had recently heard the story of Theseus and the Minotaur and so were eager to find out all about labyrinths and how they can be used as a calming exercise. The children created their own small version before going outside to create a larger-scale one.
Once the paint had dried we were able to try to work our way through the labyrinth from start to finish.
