This week in PE we were learning to aim the ball to score a goal. We played battleships by trying to shoot the ball at different coloured cones to sink them. Can you practise aiming a football at home?

Nursery flew like eagles as they went on a listening walk today in their ‘prime time’ session! We listened carefully to environmental sounds. We heard a plane, a car, a hen, a teacher, children, music and lots of other wonderful sounds. Outside was much quieter than inside school! What can you…

Everybody was very creative today as we all painted a self portrait! We used the appropriate colours and shapes! We talked about our features and the colours we noticed. We now have some beautiful works of art for display!

We finished our Dear Zoo unit in English by reading our Dear Zoo stories to each other. It was lovely to share our stories with each other and find out what each other’s perfect pet was at the end. 

In outdoor learning we enjoyed some relaxing calm time listening to the birds, looking up at the trees and feeling the breeze on our face.

Class 2 flew like eagles this afternoon in their cookery lesson with our school chef. We took responsibility for cooking lunch for the school by picking and washing beetroot, chopping it and then whisking eggs to make a quiche. 
 

I hope the other classes enjoy tasting the quiche we’ve made…
