The children have enjoyed listening to the story of The Rainbow Fish this week which inspired us to create our own rainbow fish using blue play dough, glitter and sequins to represent his glimmering scales. The children have been talking about how we can be a kind friend and have practised sharing just like the Rainbow Fish did at the end of the story.
Today we have enjoyed the sunshine in the garden making the most of our new areas of learning and new resources. As you can see there were lots of happy faces today.
Our immersion is off with a bang in Nursery for our expedition ‘What happens when the sea meets the shore?’ The children have worked really hard with the grown ups to make Nursery a beautiful place to be which will inspire our learning.
Next week, the nursery children are going to be building a bug hotel. We would love it if you would be able to bring in any pieces if wood, sticks, leaves, branches and wooden pallets so we can build a wonderful bug hotel.
The children this week have been busy planting beetroot and sunflowers. We are going to care for the plants and watch them grow through the summer term.
This week we have been immersing our nursery for our Summer expedition ‘What happens when the sea meets the shore?’ We have been crafting jelly fish, seaweed, sand, coral reefs and underpants inspired by our hook story ‘Pirates love underpants’. We have an ice cream parlour and Pirate shack for the children to enjoy. Take a look…
Jake, in Year 6, approached the school and his crew with wanting raise awareness around MND. Being a big fan of Leeds Rhinos, he has been inspired by Rob Burrows’ bravery and the superb effort of his ex-team mate, Kevin Sinfield. As a crew, we have planned a MND day for Friday 19th April for the whole school.
We are encouraging all children to wear something white, yellow or blue for a small donation that will go directly to the MND association.
