A reminder letter about the trip and arrangements will be given to children tomorrow.

What an amazing way to finish off sports week! Thank you so much to 3SIXTY Bicycle Displays for coming to visit us, the children all loved it!

Wow what a busy and fantastic week we have had for sports week, here are a few pictures of what reception got up too! 🇮🇹 🚴 🏊‍♀️ 🏃‍♂️

Earlier in the week reception released their butterflies! 🦋

Yesterday Nursery have watched the Spanish Olympic Rhythmic Gymnastics team take part in ribbon, ball and hoop events. We enjoyed completing our own Ribbon Gymnastics to Spanish music.

On Monday in Nursery we released our butterflies into our garden. We were lucky enough to have all five of our butterflies hatch, two flew away towards our forest and the others stayed in our growing area. The children enjoyed seeing our caterpillars grow into butterflies and fly away.

Yesterday we took part in a virtual art workshop with a local artist! The children really enjoyed drawing some of their favourite things about where they live! 🖼

We are looking for donations of any children’s play pushchairs as sadly all of ours are now broken. We would greatly appreciate any that people no longer use!

This week Receprion are thinking about what we would like to be when we grow up. We even had a visit from the police so we could ask them questions! 👮‍♀️

Last week Reception had great fun learning all about the Hungry Caterpillar, we can’t wait to see our class caterpillars turn to butterflies! 🐛 🦋

This week is all about Easter! 🐣💐

The whole school took part in a dance party today to raise money for Red Nose Day! We had great fun! Especially dancing back to our classrooms at the end..... 🦸‍♂️ 🦸‍♀️

For two weeks Reception have been on a bear hunt... but we’re not scared!
