Grand Opening of

Hawkins Pie Shop.

We chose a pie shop because in the nursery rhyme Little Jack Horner is eating pie.

Slide 2

Little Jack Horner

 Jack Horner was the Steward (a very important role for managing the house hold) for the Bishop of Glastonbury. When it says, eating Christmas pie in the nursery rhyme, it meant that the deeds that Jack Horner stole were hidden in pie. When it says, he pulled out a plumb, it means that he found the Manor of Mells deed which was the most important one of all.

Little Jack Horner

Little Jack Horner,

Sat in a corner,

Eating of Christmas Pie:

He put in his thumb,

And pulled out a plum,

And said, “What a good boy am I!”
