We had an awesome Presentation of Learning for our Expedition How do things grow and change?
The children presented what we had learned in each Case study, we sang some songs related to ouir learning and then we planted our bulbs in the pots that we had designed and painted.













The chicks that we have been looking after for Case Study 3 and Science week were the stars of the show with the children and grown ups having a hold and a cuddle.
Thanks so much to everyone who managed to join us this afternoon, the children are so proud of their learning and they loved sharing with you.
We are so proud of all the children in Reception, well done everyone!

Reception Science Week.
Louie has been a super scientist at home this weekend and has done an experiment with his grown ups. They were looking at different volcanoes and it was so much fun!




Well done Louie, I love that you have been continuing you learning at home.
Keep up the great work.

Reception are Scientists!
Last week in reception the children enjoyed learning about how the chicks grow and change. The chicks are doing really well and have grown so much! We can’t wait to see how much more they grow this week!
They also looked carefully at spring flowers discussing their prior learning and vocabulary used. The children drew some wonderful pencil drawings to showcase their learning. Here are some of our wonderful photos








EYFS are calling for donations
In the summer term, The EYFS will be holding a used toy and book sale to raise funds for resources. If anyone has any toys and books in good condition they would be gratefully received. Please drop off any donations in Nursery.
Many thanks for your support.

Reception Chick Update!
We have had a very exciting day in reception observing and watching our chicks grow and change! We currently have 4 chicks! Suggested names are flying around for them! The children have been looking at the chicks in detail and have begun writing words to describe the chicks. I can’t wait to see what tomorrow morning brings!







Reception Community Crew
What a fantastic community crew we have had today! We have celebrated so much beautiful work, children reading regularly at home, Howl point winners and our Crew Champions! Here are some of our superstars from this week! Congratulations to Regan and Jack our super Crew champions!



Reception – We love reading!
A huge well done to our children who brought in their reading packs to share in class on Friday! We enjoyed the story of Farmer Duck together this week. Here it is read by Michael Rosen if you would like to watch it together!
The children enjoyed lots of reading activities together including reading a sentence and drawing the matching picture! There are lots of activities you could do at home too!






Reception are mathematicians!
Last week in maths the reception children have been exploring matching number and quantities. Here is our collaborative team challenge! We had to work together to build the highest tower in a minute. We had to compare how many bricks were in the tallest and smallest towers and then had the extra challenge of building them all with the same amount of bricks! Here are some of our moments in action




Reception Science Week – Chicks in F2.
We are very excited that we have had 10 eggs delivered today in reception. We are hopeful that these eggs will hatch and then we will have some chicks in our classroom by the end of the week.



We will keep you posted on the progress of this and what we find out this week.
