Our caterpillars have now moved to their new home in the chrysalis station.

We have been researching the artist Henri Matisse. We know that he liked to use bright colours and  cut out shapes to create montages. One of his most famous pieces was called ‘The Snail.’  Luisa’s family very kindly donated some canvases to our class so we decided to recreate our own montage of a snail on canvas.

This week our star writers wrote fantastic acrostic poems about different mini beasts.
