We have had a busy start to Term 2.
Our new topic is Festivals and there has already been lots of opportunities for art work connected to these.

I am enjoying Art. I like making realistic drawings. For example we made black line drawings of hedgehogs. EB
I am enjoying learning how to use vertical layout in addition. It helps us to work with larger numbers. EW
I have enjoyed using vertical setting to add and my skills are improving. HG
I am enjoying the Halloween tasks such as making silhouette pictures of bats and cats. TM
I am enjoying learning the French words for colours and reading colouring in instructions in French. AA
I have been enjoying watching Newsround so that I know what is going on in the world. CC
I liked making Halloween stories because they were spooky and fun. AW

In P6 we have been learning about World War 2! The children learned about the Blackout and why it needed to happen.  Then during a STEM lesson, the children tested different materials to see what ones were the best for blackout curtains!    The children also learned all about the evacuation and what the children took with them to their new families, where they were evacuated to and how long it lasted for.

The children are using devices several times a day, every day, and we would appreciate it if adults at home could please remind their children to charger their devices and to bring them in.  Thank you!

Morning everyone,

We hope that you are all well.

Thank you all so much as always for your continued support during these times.

Next week we will be sending out a parent and child questionnaire to allow us to gain written feedback from our families.  This will enable us to continue to provide the best service we possibly can to all.  We would appreciate your time to complete this and return it to the box at the front entrance.

This week our little learners have been excited by all our Halloween activities.   We have carved pumpkins, made our very own pumpkin patch, explored slime, gluck and jelly, enjoyed Halloween biscuits and pumpkins scones for snack and dressing up was the ladies favourite, it really made us all smile, the costumes were amazing and our children all looked super cute (although we did’t dare tell them this as some of them informed us they wanted to be ‘scary’).

This week we have been to explore the forest where we listened to the ‘Room on the Broom’ story and made our very own magic wands using natural resources from our environment.  We choose our own sticks and leaves to create our wands and added some paint and glitter.

We are all looking forward to more fun and learning next week.

Have a great weekend

The nursery Team
