Reception

This Half Term we have used Heroes as our stimulus for learning. From Super Healthy Me to Heroes in the Community, Nurses and Doctors, Bakers and Farmers.  This led our learning to Harvest and Apples.  We made apple crumble with apples the children had picked, some bread rolls, as well as some…

On a lovely, sunny, Summer day, we celebrated the end of our Topic Alice in Wonderland with a Mad Hatters Tea Party, which saw the children making their own sandwiches and making shopping lists for party food, writing invitations and planning the party!  
We have immersed ourselves in wonderful,…

For our D and T project, we decided to make a Castle, which linked to our Wonderland and Traditional Tales theme! Every single person in our class had a specific job role, from designers and builders to painters and decorators.  We had to discuss how best to join things and had to make alterations…

Reception class enjoyed a lovely morning trying out their new Year 1 classroom.  We made England flags, paper chains and sang football songs.  We enjoyed working on some art work that will be in our class when we return in September.  Our favourite part was playing on the new castle.   Mrs Robson…

We have started our new phase of learning in Maths.  We have enjoyed sharing out raisins and our role play food fairly.  We loved working out odds and evens by sharing cubes and other resources into two groups and seeing if there was one left over, which means it’s an odd number. Our problem…

Our topic of Where the Wild Things Are has come to an end! We have used Story Telling Language to improve the words we use when we tell and write stories.  We have created environments that included islands and seaweed for magical creatures and had lots of fun thinking about Wild Things!  We…

The children listened carefully to the story of Jesus telling his Disciples and Mary, his mother, that everything would be alright, that they must look after each other and that he would ascend to Heaven to be with his Father there.  The children were intrigued and we talked about how Jesus may…

As Mental Health Awareness Week began, we decided to go outside as we have realised that just being outside, whatever the weather, helps calm us and helps us to learn.  We looked around the playground and found some quiet places to sit beside our flowers.

We concentrated on our breathing…

Over the last few weeks we have been practising story telling and have enjoyed added expression to our voices.  In our Computing lessons, we have already learnt how to take a photograph, but this week, we looked at recording each other in a video. We loved it and became very professional, nodding…

St. George is our Class Saint!  We have celebrated today listening and learning about St. George.  We loved the story about him slaying the dragon and rescuing the Princess.  We thought about dragons and wrote lots of different adjectives to describe a dragon.  We made crowns and St. George’s…

During Lent we have thought about how we can grow more like Jesus, so we have been even kinder to each other and more helpful.  
 

This week we listened to the Story of Palm Sunday and The Last Supper.  We cut out palm leaves and tried really hard to improve our cutlery skills!  We have…
