Rocket - Late for School!


Naughty Rocket slept in today and was late for school. Cam's Mum had to bring him later after he had woken up. He missed Jump Jam. Cam said he was playing lots of games with him last night and Rocket was exhausted. We reminded Rocket that he has to go to bed early during the week. Only sleep in at the weekends Rocket!
