Week beginning 11th July.

Well done to all the children this week for concluding our learning on the Gruffalo, and what better way to end than creating these fantastic Gruffalo cupcakes...

 

We made chocolate buns and then piped chocolate icing.
We then added marshmallows and jelly tots to add some features.

We have also had a busy week completing lots of end of year assessment tasks ahead of the end of term next week.  The children have shown a mature attitude towards some tricky tasks and are showing us that they are truly ready for their forthcoming move to Year 1.

Friday afternoon all children showed great team spirit as we joined together again for some water themed house colour relays, well done to everyone who had fun taking part and what fantastic sportsmanship was shown by all.

 

 

 

 

 

Reminder.... Next Tuesday afternoon from 3-4, parents are welcome to come and look through the children's books to see the progression from September to now.

Week beginning 4.7.16

What a fantastic week we have had...

The children had their first taste of life in Class 2 on Tuesday morning ahead of next weeks transition morning and all returned to us beaming.

We were so proud of all of our Reception children on Thursday with how they talked about their learning and behaved during our special visit.  Well done to all of you.

A super end to the week... Our trip to Rendlesham Forest.

The children enjoyed the super adventure play areas as well as woodland activities such as den building, bug hunting and much more.

We also went on one of the woodland trails and went hunting for sculptures in the sculpture area.

We had a very successful beginning of the week with all of the children taking part in our outdoor Sports Day. We had and amazing day and the children were FANTASTIC showing great enthusiasm and resilience. Well done!!

We all enjoyed the challenges and team spirit. 

Challenging ourselves didn't stop there, as we learned to count in 2's in maths.  We used the Numicon to help us and then tried to learn from 0-20 by heart.
We also took pride recording this learning in our books and well done to those of you who made it to 100 and beyond. Wow!

 

We have been extremely pleased with the arrival of our lovely new indoor sand and water trays for our classroom and the children have had a lovely time using them.

Finally, the children are continuing to enjoy the challenges in our woodland area, creating things with natural materials.  This week 'Can you make a leaf animal?'
Well done for making leaf snakes (from our Gruffalo book) and a fantastic house for them to live in.

Well done to Jack and Jake, our Golden Book Winners this week for super maths.
