Confident Individuals
Over the past few days, the Sunflower’s have loved making bats and spiders during our craft time. Each child was able to add a variety of coloured chalks to their black card to create a bat silhouette. Afterwards, we made a spiders web with foam and loved collecting the spiders from the messy tray. Everyone took part in our paint stamping task using Halloween skull stamps and loved adding glitter to our pumpkins.
This term in the Oak class we have been successful learners taking part in a variety of lessons to improve knowledge about Global Goal 3 – Good Health and Well-Being.
This week we reflected on all the lessons we have taken part in this term and decided what we need to feel good about ourselves. We created posters with lots of photos of our work this term.
Healthy Body + Healthy Mind = Healthy ME!
We decided we needed exercise, friends, relaxation, sleep and healthy food choices. This week our focus has been using meditation to help us relax and feel very chilled.
The Oak class would like to wish everyone a Happy Halloween! We have made lots of Halloween decorations for the class, made a pumpkin bird feeder, enjoyed seeing all our friends virtually in our school Halloween parade then finished the week with our class Halloween party.
We were effective contributors in making our bird feeder and getting the class ready for Halloween with some spooktacular decorations.
Here are some photos from our Halloween week in the Beech class. We were all effective contributors as we took part in a range of fun activities and loved dressing up on Friday for our class Halowe’en party!
The Beech class have had a fun week celebrating Hallowe’en! We took part in a music lesson where we learned to play percussion along to the ‘Skeleton Dance’.
We made lots of pumpkins from recycled materials as part of our ECO campaign in school. Our target is based on ‘Zero Hunger’ so rather than have lots of food waste from real pumpkins, we made our own pumpkins from recyclable materials.
In cookery, we made rice krispie pumpkins and monster cookies!
* CONFIDENT INDIVIDUALS *
The Daisies class were all very confident individuals and came into school dressed in Halloween costumes. We loved showing them off to our friends and joining in with the virtual parade.
Global Goal 3
Good Health and Wellbeing
We are really lucky to have our sensory garden to explore and complete garden walks. We are then able to enjoy some healthy exercise and get some fresh air during the school day. We have also been exploring some healthy foods and using pictures to create a healthy and unhealthy lunch box. It was great fun. We also made posters to put in in the classroom to show how we can be healthy.
Responsible Citizens and Confident Individuals
During our fun Halloween activities, the Sunflower’s enjoyed carving pumpkins with designs of their own choice. Each child actively participated by scooping the pumpkin contents into a sensory bag and moving the seeds around the pumpkin face. Afterwards, we were able to add cereal to our leftover pumpkins to create bird feeders for the garden.

We have been exploring vegetables real life, pictures and symbols. This week we used the SMARTboard and were able to choose from a choice of two colours. We were able to use our hand or finger to point and make a choice. Some were able to identify each coloured circle and then choose the correct colour. Everyone enjoys using the SMARTboard and are confident individuals at using their hand or finger to make a choice.

Whilst exploring the story of Oliver’s Vegetables we did many activities.
We worked on our fine motor skills and were able to rip off the leaves of the cabbage. We were also able to split the pea pods and pull out the peas from inside. The children were confident individuals and able to explore the pea pods with their hands snapping them to see what was inside. We all had fun exploring and working on our fine motor skills.
