Thomas Bates - October 2021
Within our topic work on Little Eaton this half term, we have been studying the life and legacy of Thomas Bates. We enjoyed a fabulous, informative talk from members of the Little Eaton Historical Society before presenting our knowledge in a range of different ways. We are very grateful to Bill and Lynne for giving up their time to help us and providing the prizes. The entries were all amazing and I know they had a difficult decision when choosing the winners of a £10 book token.
