Willowbank School, KilmarnockThe Bluebells have enjoyed learning about the Hindi festival of Holi. The children loved that it was a colourful festival. We scrunched up lots of different coloured tissue paper and added them to a tree trunk design to make a colourful tree. Some were confident individuals and able to identify each colour the were placing on the tree.

This week we completed lots of different Easter activities. We used our hands to make different animals to make some Easter cards. We made a chick and a bunny rabbit. We had an egg and spoon race on Monday in the classroom – we tried to balance the egg on spoon first before we added in walking. We also decorated some Easter baskets and added some delicious chocolate eggs.
Today we had an Easter egg hunt in the classroom looking for lots of chocolate eggs hidden around the room. We also wore our chick head pieces we made to our virtual assembly today. We danced to the “Spring chicken” song and played our instruments to other songs too.
Yesterday we were successful learners learning about Diwali. We viewed a powerpoint with pictures and then made some Rangoli patterns with rice and also with foam shapes. We also made lovely lanterns to take home.
