In Reception we have fun outside in all weathers. There is no such thing as bad weather when you have the right waterproofs and wellies. The children had lots of fun in the rain and even turned it into soapy rain water. 
 

In PE the children have been dancing to different rhythms and music using our dance scarves. The children moved the scarves to the music and also worked in partners to create some rhythm dancing.
