Class 1 have had a fantastic week. We have enjoyed sharing our recipes from home and are looking forward to making our recipe book. At forest schools we were explorers, looking for different habitats and talking about who might live there. We also made pancakes on the fire, they were delicious! In SCARF we have been learning about money - how we get it, why we need it and how we can look after it. The children enjoyed visiting our shop and spending their pennies wisely. Today we have made the most of the sunshine - making obstacle courses, building castles and making mud cakes. We even found a ladybird!

We had another great cricket session with Fraser, with the children showing lots of perseverance. For World Book Day we shared the story 'Anna Hibiscus' Song' which is set in Nigeria . We researched what kinds of animals live in Nigeria, then did some brilliant drawings to share with the rest of school. We have continued to read traditional tales during story time.

Class 1 This week in Class 1 we have been continuing our learning about 'Who Helps Us'. In our SCARF sessions we have shared ideas about staying safe, we have made some special posters to help round school.

In Reception, we have been using our clay techniques to sculpt models of our faces. In phonics we have been working hard to chop up and read longer words - we are doing really well! In Maths we have been investigating length and finding different ways to represent 6, 7 and 8. We had a fantastic football session with Paul and Haydon - their football skills are really coming on.

In Nursery we have been telling the story of 'Little Red Riding Hood', using puppets and remembering the key parts. We have looked at mass and balance, making ourselves into weighing scales to decide whether something is heavier or lighter than something else.
