Willowbank School, KilmarnockThe Stars Class made a rain catcher to collect water in the garden. We sieved it through paper to see how clean it was to drink. It was full of dirt and leaves. We are so lucky to have clean water from the tap to drink and wash in. Some boys and girls from abroad are not so lucky and have to drink dirty water from rivers or lakes. We have also planted spring bulbs in the garden. We hope they will grow into colourful daffodils and tulips.
The Stars Class created colourful rockets at art then used a balloon to make a rocket which shot across the classroom. It moved really fast and was very noisy.

The Stars Class enjoyed lots of Halloween activities this week and a sensory assembly. We harvested the pumpkins we’d grown in the garden.
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.
The Stars Class have noticed the trees are changing in the garden. We collected different coloured leaves and made colourful autumn prints with them. We had fun exploring a Nanny McPhee story bag and handling the props.
The Stars Class were busy doing lots of maths activities this week. We explored number, colour, symmetry, shape and measurement using duplo and enormous bricks.
We led assembly this week which was on the theme of friendship. We told the story of ‘Rainbow Fish’ then showed everyone all the friendship activities and art work we’d done. Everyone seemed to enjoy it.
We have started to compile an ‘All About Me’ booklet as part of our new theme, Nanny McPhee.
