13th November 2019
Today, we have been very busy continuing to learn all about vets. Children cut out different 2D shapes to make dogs and cats and learnt the art of Origami, creating unique dog faces. With our artist Mr Walshaw, who comes in to work with the children every Wednesday, they created beautiful poppies out of tissue paper. Look out for these on our windows.

A polite reminder that we are encouraging independence in a morning.
The children will recieve a treasure for coming in on their own, putting thier own bag and water bottle in the right place.
If your could support this we will be very grateful.
Also due to the large number of birthdays in November and December I will politly ask that children don't bring in sweets for the class.
We have allergies in the class and I care very much about reducing children's sugar intake and promoting dental care.
Miss Kelly supports this.
Thank-you for your continued support.

6th November 2019
Today children have done a range of different activities all related to bonfire night. They create fireworks using 2D shapes, sparklers with biscuits and firework scenes. They also created their own dance where they were the bonfires and fireworks. The children began to learn about a new artist, Jackson Pollock. As a class, they used his 'drip painting' method to create a firework scene in a night sky. What a cracking day we have had!

Halloween and Diwali fusion!

23rd October 2019
Today we have been very busy learning about Halloween and Diwali festivals. Children have used their hands to make witches flying through the sky, made hanging witches out of card, used sponges to create a background for a silhouette of a cat or bat and created beautiful mandala patterns. This afternoon a team of chefs have made some delicious pumpkin soup. All children tasted it. How yummy it was!
