Punch and Judy visit Year R

Mr Pugh came to visit us today and brought his Punch and Judy show. He let us look at the glove puppets.  Mr Punch's head was papier mache, and Judy's head was wood.  He told us Punch came from Italy, then to France and then to England.  The Victorians made his show better for children!  We loved laughing at naughty Mr Punch and telling Mr Pugh where the puppets were.  Mr Punch got into lots of trouble, and even lost the sausages to the crocodile. 

Luckily, Judy forgave him and he promised to be good. We joined in singing "oh I do like to be beside the seaside".

 

Thank-you Mr Pugh and the Friends for paying for this great outdoor theatre and slice of Victorian history.
