The EYFS children heard that Souter Lighthouse needed some help. With the weather becoming sunnier, they were I need need of some books for families to enjoy while visiting. As the children love reading so much, we knew we had to walk straight down with a selection of books.
We even managed a sneaky visit to Laura’s park on the way home! ☺️
EYFS wanted to say a big “Well Done!” To Year 6 for completing their SAT’s. We popped up with a picture for each child and a sweet treat.
We hope you enjoyed them as they were well deserved!
Nursery love to explore different ways to make marks and explore writing. Last week, we danced away to Under the Sea using our flipper flappers to make circles and lines in the air. We then transferred these skills to paper before making our own octopus!
Then we continued the fun by making marks in shaving foam.
As part of Deaf Awareness Week, Mrs Hanratty has been teaching EYFS how to communicate using our hands. Our Word of the Week is ‘sign’ and we have been learning lots of signs linked to our theme ‘Under the Sea’.
Can you guess which animals they are?
Nursery and Reception have had a brilliant morning in PE with ‘Little Movers’. We had lots of fun dancing, playing games and taking turns with the parachute. Well done to to Ezra and Evie who also won the the dance award.
We can’t wait for next week!
Wow, what an amazing day. The staff and children have thoroughly enjoyed welcoming family into the classroom today.
Thank you so much for the amazing feedback from family:
“Thank you, really good craft day with plenty of options of things to make, drawing, biscuit decorating etc. Children and parents all enjoyed the craft time. It was also an opportunity to mix with other parents and meet school friends. Great Fun!”
“Thank you very much. We both really loved it and we look forward to doing it again!”
“This was wonderful!”
“Fab set up with lots of choice for children to do/play and learn. Hudson loves spending time here. Thank you for everything you do!”
EYFS shared a very emotional Mother’s Day Assembly with Mams, Grandmas and lots of other special people in our lives. What made our assembly even more special was the fact that the children wrote the script themselves so the messages were very heart-warming and personal.
The staff couldn’t be any prouder of our amazing children!
On Tuesday, Reception went on an amazing adventure to The Urban Factory. We got to learn lots of amazing gymnastics skills and had lots of fun too!
EYFS have had an exciting day learning all about ‘Holi’. We designed our own t-shirts, looked at videos from the festival and then made our own delicious rainbow bagels. This linked in perfectly to British Science Week as we discussed the changes we could see happening.
Linked to World Book Day and our text of the week “The Smartest Giant in Town”, EYFS decide to be the kindest children in the land! We have hidden books all around Whitburn for children to enjoy. We encourage you to read the book at home and then hide it again for someone else to find!
Please comment below if you found one of books and let us know where you found it 😁
Happy Hunting!
