The Scarecrow Who Didn't Scare by Neil Griffiths

8th Oct 2024

Our autumn 🍂 story for this week is ‘The Scarecrow Who Didn’t Scare’ by Neil Griffiths. 

In the story, Farmer Wallace makes himself a scarecrow, but the crows and rabbits and mice take no notice of it, eating the seeds and shoots and ears of corn so that when the farmer comes to harvest his crops he finds nothing. He throws his scarecrow into the hedge in a temper and there poor scarecrow lies.

We decided to make 2 new scarecrows for Farmer Wallace and hopefully they will do a better job at keeping the crows, rabbits and mice won’t eat the seeds.

A massive thank you to Anne-Marie for providing all the materials and for guiding the children during this team building activity. They had a fun time creating 2 scarecrows for our autumn display in P3.
