As the weather has finally turned a little more Autumnal we expect crafts to make a big comeback in the last few weeks of term 🍁🍂
This week we look forward to making some Conker snails from scented play- doh 🐌
Creating snuffly hedgehogs using forks & paint and some pumpkin prints using apples 🦔🍎
Thursday is Global Handwriting Day and we will look to write about our favourite thing/food 📝✍🏻
As long as the weather is kind we will hope to continue our football and riding our bikes and scooters 🛴 🚲

This week at Grove we shall be starting on some Autumn themed crafts to help full up our Autumn display board. We hope to collect some natural seasonal objects to use alongside this. If anyone has any additional conkers / acorns please feel free to bring them in 🍂🍁
If the weather remains bright we should still be spending as much time as possible outside to enjoy every last bit! 🌤️

This week has been full of sports! 🏀🥏🏉🏏🥎Children have been completing their school sports days, we have been able to play outside now it’s cooled slightly and we have continued to follow the World Cup ⚽️
The children were very excited to watch the England game alongside tea last week 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿
We have also enjoyed lots of crafts and baking 🎨✍️🧁
This week we shall enjoy our last full week before the last 4 days of term ( after school club closed Friday 17th)

We have had a busy few weeks since half term so apologises for lack of posts!
We are fully in the grips of football fever since the start of the World Cup. There are so many conversations about the games, scores and players. It's lovely to see some of the children so passionate about it! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏆
With that we have been busy completing our score sheets daily and making our own football lists and dream teams🏃🏃‍♀️‍➡️
Some of the children have taken to becoming their favourite players during the many football games ⚽️
Apart from football we have enjoyed being outside and utilising our garden space in every weather. This week looks to be very hot 🌞 so outdoor play will involve some water tables as well as some code board games inside.
We have a few unnamed items in our lost property if your child is missing something please let us know as we may have it.
Questions, comments, suggestions- please let us know. ❤️
