On Thursday, we celebrated Easter with an Easter bonnet parade.  The Easter Bunny came too.  Thank you for all the hard work – the bonnets were very creative.  Have a look.

Last week was Africa week in Eastfield Primary School.  We were very busy learning about African animals, such as  how they move,  what they eat, what they look like, their different patterns and size. The children also made maps of Africa from play dough and scrunched paper.  On Friday, we finished off the week with an African themed dress up day and an assault course, with the donations raised going to our partner school in Kileva, Kenya. It was great fun.

We have really enjoyed learning about space.  This week we used lots of different art techniques to make planets, we even tried drawing upside down to help us understand gravity!  We used books to find interesting information about space and used numbered planets to help sequence numbers one to ten.

We are really enjoying learning about space.  This week, we worked together to make a large picture of the solar system, played percussion instruments to the syllables of the planet names and counted space objects. Have a look.
