The Moonbeams class loved exploring pumpkins this week. We were all brave enough to help prepare the pumpkin for carving in some way – whether it was scooping using spoons or our hands.

We used pens to draw templates on the pumpkin and then helped wiggle the shapes out when they had been cut.

We loved this experience!

The Moonbeams class loved our first horse riding outing yesterday where we got to meet Betsy and Hamish. We got to groom them and all had a chance to ride one of the horses. We were learning what to say to the horses to encourage them to go faster and what to say when we wanted them to stop.

Some pupils in the Moonbeams class attempted to make a Stone Age cave during the October holidays. Some pupils got help from their parents and siblings and enjoyed showing them off to their peers in class as part of our Flintstones theme.

As part of our Stone Age – Flintstones theme, we looked closely at Stonehenge this week. We learned where it is situated and how it was formed and then had a challenge to create some Stonehenge models and replicas ourselves. We loved doing this!

The Moonbeams class are very excited about Steven Brown and Harris McCoo’s visit on Thursday. We created a giant Harris McCoo with coloured tissue paper. We have also been practising the song and dance ahead of his visit which we have thoroughly enjoyed!

In the Stone Age caves, people found evidence of handprints that the cavemen had left. We wanted to create our own hand stencils and did this through working with a partner using paint.
