What better way to announce our return to social media than with an announcement of an open day ☀️

Only in Foundation Stage do we get to throw ‘hailstones’ and stick ‘boils’ on a teacher! Don’t worry though, Miss Jubb wasn’t harmed and it was part of our learning about Passover-a special day in Judaism ✡️

A poppy-themed Outdoor Friday today. We learnt the importance of and why we wear . We painted our path and created our own leaf poppies before watching the CBeebies Poppy video

Much excitement today when we found that ‘a million ladybugs’ had settled on a piece of pumpkin intended for the squirrels 🎃 Our bug-hunters are strong this year 😊

Did we have lots of dirty feet on Friday? We can explain…it was all part of our We’re Going on a Bear Hunt Outdoor Friday 👣 🐻 We went through swishy grass, squelchy mud and very cold water to find the bear before enjoying a warming cup of hot chocolate

An exciting afternoon here in school…3 owls came to visit 🦉 Of course, Foundation Stage got to visit first (and we may visit again on Thursday!) We met Coco, Star and Twitch who were very well-behaved and we even got to hold them! A huge thank you to Mrs Swallow for bringing them to visit us 🙏🏼

Hands up if you’ve ever made a hedgehog pumpkin 🎃 That was the theme of today’s Outdoor Friday. Using our hammering skills to hammer twigs in a pumpkin. Everyone, please meet Jade the ‘Hedgekin’…as named by FS 🦔
