We cut the bottom off a used plastic lemonade bottle and lined it with paper. We planted a sweet pea plant through the hole then filled the bottle with compost. Afterwards we hung it in the garden. We must remember to keep it well watered.

We had a fantastic Superhero Day celebrating MOVE. We enjoyed superhero cupcakes and created masks. We played games using the Captain America shields we made yesterday and enjoyed a super villain game. We danced, did exercises and watched the MOVE video which showcased all the great MOVE activities we do at Willowbank. A very happy day.

The school has just received this wonderful bicycle and two of the Stars class boys had their first shot on it today. It was fantastic! What fun they had. Lots more goes to come!
Throughout our school week we use loads of technology to help us learn. See some of our IT activities this week. We also enjoyed our weekly ‘virtual’ assembly.

We collected leaves and flowers from the garden and used them to paint dinosaur pictures. We were amazed what good paint brushes they made.

The Stars class made fabulous dinosaur fossils. We measured ingredients to make salt dough, divided the dough equally among us and imprinted with our favourite dinosaur shapes. After allowing the dough to dry we painted them. Don’t they look good?
