The Stars class used potatoes and onions we grew in the garden to make vegetable soup at H.E. We worked really hard to prepare and chop the vegetables. It tasted delicious.

We have had a busy few weeks and everyone has been confident individual getting to know their new class friends.
The Oak class motto this year is ‘Try Everything’ and we delivered our first class assembly based on this theme and ‘Being the Best We Can Be’. We got everyone up dancing to our song ‘Try Everything’.

Back at Willowbank
The Stars Class have been getting to know our new class these past two weeks. We have been playing ‘getting to know you’ games and have been enjoying time outside in the sunshine. We worked hard clearing the weeds that had grown over the summer in our planter. They were huge! After the weeds were removed we were able to find the potatoes, onions and peas that we had grown. We discussed our feelings and emotions then made playdoh faces. See if you can recognise our emotions – happy, sad, upset, angry, surprised, excited and sleepy.

Bush Tucker Treasure Hunt
The Stars class invited the Sungazers class to a Bush Tucker Treasure Hunt in the sensory garden. We looked for fruit pictured in our worksheet and counted them. Afterwards we had a sociable snack together in the Stars class. Everybody seemed to have a good time.
The Stars class have planted vegetable plants in the school garden. We have planted peas, courgettes, pumpkins, carrots, onions and potatoes. We keep them well watered and hope we will have a healthy crop of vegetables to harvest after the holidays.
