Swimming lessons at the Galleon were cancelled this week because of the snow. This gave the Transition boys a chance to be Successful Learners when reading snow poetry in class and answering questions at the end.

FAOL – Outdoor Learning
The Stars class made bird feeders to feed to hungry birds in our sensory garden during the cold weather. We mixed together lard and bird seed then filled yogurt pots we’d saved from snack time. The pots were tied up high around the garden for the birds to access.

If I Were a Rich Man…..
The Transition boys had a busy start to the new term. This week they were Successful Learners when they were checking totals of coins in different purses. They then had the challenge of putting them in order from most money to least money.
The Stars class rehearsed hard for the school show. We looked at, listened to and practised singing and signing to the songs, ‘When Santa Got Stuck up the Chimney’, ‘Frosty the Snowman’, ‘Silent Night’ and finally ‘Reach For the Stars’. Alongside the Moonbeams and Sungazers classes we dressed up in character and held props to perform.
