This week in the foundation stage we are learning all about keeping healthy and the importance of sleep. To help with our sweet dreams we have made dream catchers. Here is a dream catcher made by Eric in the Magpies.

In RE this week we have been learning about the story of the Prodigal Son, and understanding that Christians believe that God loves us, like the Father in the story loves his son. We made a 'hug' to show that the father forgave his son even when he made a mistake. Here is Isla's hug.

In Year 2 we have started our topic on Explorers by learning about Amelia Earhart. We have watched videos, read and learned lots of facts. 

This work by Arabella in the Squirrels is an example of the facts that the children have been working hard to remember.

The Elephants have been demonstrating excellent concentration and perseverance skills this week. All children designed and created their own fabric fish. The children learnt how to sew using a running stitch and add embellishments using glue. Well done Year One! They look FISH-tastic! 

Year 2 have been working really hard to create textile minibeasts.  We have used sewing and embellishment techniques.

As part of our Seaside topic, Jack from the Elephants class designed a fish on Purple Mash. He used a range of textured pens and was able to vary the size of the pen. It looks FIN-tastic!
