AQUILA finds out about organisations which foster friendship, such as the Society of Friends or Quakers, which was started 350 years ago, and EB looks at global friendships, with some ideas on how to make links with other schools around the world. Autumn is a great time for spotting some interesting fungi when you are out for a walk - but watch out for the poisonous ones! Harvey identifies the most dangerous ones and tells you what to look out for. Enter a competition to write a poem about 'Friendship' and do a fun quiz to discover if you make 'a good friend'. Polly Chrome shows how to make a code machine so you can send secret messages to your friends. You can share some maths games and puzzles too.
