The Snowdrops have been learning all about toys and yesterday visited a pretend toy shop to choose a toy and exchange coins for a toy. The Snowdrops showed lots of interest in the different toys that were on offer and enjoyed a bit of ‘try before you buy’! The Snowdrops made careful choices and counted out the number of coins to match the number on the price tag. The Snowdrops were also very confident at playing ‘shopkeeper’ and working the till. Well done, Snowdrops!
Last week on Friday we completed Earth day activities.
Some of the pupils were able to take some paper and put it in the recycling bin in the corridor. We also made sure we turned off the lights when we didn’t need them.
We completed an earth day matching activity and listened to the story about the Lorax saving the earth. We then created our own Lorax picture. We also sat in the dark and used a torch to explore books. This was a favourite activity and all the pupils really enjoyed this.
The Comets have created some super kite pictures which focus on the element of form.
Lots of hard work and focus during this lesson.
Well done to these confident individuals!

On Friday, the Snowdrops celebrated Earth Day 2022. Everyone actively participated as we talked about our Earth and looked at our globe. We decided to invest in our planet by planting some seeds. Everyone showed lots of interest in feeling the soil and looking at the seeds and everyone confidently filled their pots, planted their seeds and watered them too! We are hoping the seeds will grow into beautiful flowers!
The Snowdrops also designed some lovely Earth Day t-shirts! Excellent work Snowdrops!!
The Transition class were Effective Contributors during their Earth Day Activities. They worked hard on a collaborative art work and then spent some time in the sun planting sunflower seeds that we harvested from last year’s sunflowers.
The Transition class took advantage of the good weather on Earth Day to switch off our electricity and go out into the park. They were Confident Individuals when practicing setting up tents for DofE. It was a little breezy but everyone persevered and got the tent up. We took time to have our snack together in the outdoors
