Morning boys and girls,

We hope you have all had a lovely long weekend with your families and enjoyed the sunshine again! Mrs Eccleston and I have been busy with our families.

We went a big family cycle through woods close to us and finished at some mountain bike jumps which Sam, Beth and Zack loved! We even found a rainbow painted on a tree.

Zack made a fruit smoothie for everyone and was practicing halving fruit.

We found a place where we could get sushi delivered to our door so we were all very excited and it was delicious!

Beth has to teach the younger Brownies on Zoom a Disney craft activity so she decided to make a pencil holder, Minnie Mouse themed.

Zack wants to learn basketball so we have been challenging him to bounce the ball as many times as he can without stopping.

We bought a mini greenhouse and have been planting, strawberries, tomatoes, peppers and cucumbers.

Sam was challenged by his PE teacher to see how many toilet rolls he could jump over, he managed 9!

Zack and I made a den and played games in it with a torch light, he loved it!

We watched an art programme to draw a monkey it was great fun.

Mrs Eccleston has been really busy too :

This week we have been completing some arts and crafts and STEM activities. We made origami animals and puppets. Then we made fortune tellers and paper aeroplanes. I need to work on my design as mine flew the least distance.

The girls made a ‘lockdown’ jar and they filled it with things they would like to do. Ruby made a STEM poster and we made gingerbread men, a lemon drizzle cake, crepes and a Victoria sponge cake.

Ruby went on a search around the house to find items with 0, 1, 2 or more than 2 lines of symmetry then we filmed messages for their teachers to put into an IMovie compilation with the other members of their class.

Our plants are beginning to grow now and we planted some more seeds in the garden. Hope you are all well and enjoyed the break. We are all glad to see the sunshine back!
