St Andrew’s Day activities
This week we had a sensory assembly all about St Andrew’s day. We tried different Scottish food and we painted our hands and created a class thistle picture. There were different sound boxes which we had to listen to and match to the Scottish character such as Katie Morag, Balamory and The Proclaimers.
Today we made our own Scottish flags using tissue paper and did some fine motor work following the different lines using our pencil.
Yesterday we had a very busy day at school! A sensory assembly for St Andrew’s Day – tasting Scottish food, looking at Scottish pictures, listening to Scottish music and sounds, making thistle hand prints, and playing with porridge paly doh. Then we had cookery and made Lentil Soup… it was yummy!!! Followed by a visit from Santa’s reindeer – we said we were busy!!!

St Andrew’s and Pet Therapy
The Stars class started celebrating St Andrew’s day by making St Andrew’s flags and roller painting tartan with toy cars! We had fun trying different ways to propel balls across the table but not by touching. We had a lovely time when Bella and Zeus visited us at Pet Therapy.

Pudsey Activities
The Stars Class enjoyed Pudsey activities on Friday afternoon. We handled dotty water beads, made dotty Pudsey pictures and had Pudsey dotting all over the magic carpet! We even had tasty Pudsey decorated cakes and shortbread for snack. Earlier in the week we finished making ‘junk’ houses and recently we have enjoyed outings to B&Q, The Range and Hansel Village.

October Holiday Countdown
The Stars Class have enjoyed a fantastic week where we saw not only Harris McCoo but Singing Hands too. What a treat! We’ve worked hard too and made an Autumn sensory bottle, added to our Nanny McPhee wall display and made yucky ‘worm’ sandwiches at HE which actually were very tasty!
The Stars Class collected colourful leaves to make autumn pictures. We created splendid hedgehog and fox pictures and discussed the yearly life cycle of a tree. We also made Christmas cards to be printed as a school fundraiser.
The Stars Class made Mars Bar cake to share with our friends. We enjoyed sensory activities, had a ‘green’ tea party and made a handprint green frog picture. We also had a visit from Harley, the French bulldog, at Pet Therapy.

Literacy and Art
This week has been quick and very busy. Some of us enjoyed being in for full days and have enjoyed all the fun activities. We have been looking at the letter and sound “S” this week. We did lots of activities about “S”. We enjoyed looking in Mr Tumble’s spotty bag for “s” and things beginning with “s”. We were finding magnetic letters in spaghetti, we made our own spiders and played with the fish swimming in the water.
We also had a special job to do. We had to get our foot painted to make something special for later in the year. All the Sunflower boys really enjoyed this and have tickly feet.
