A large trip set off to St.Mary’s Island and the Touchpool at the Blue Reef Aquarium.
The day could not have been better, the weather was amazing, the children had a great day and everybody came back with the greatest smile.
Last week Foundation Stage, invited Mrs Clark from our kitchen to work with us while we investigated the amount of sugar in breakfast cereals.
We tasted each cereal and created tallies of our favourite cereals.
Mrs Clarke chose the blueberry wheetos with a whopping 14 g of sugar!
Our Reception and Nursery children put on an amazing assembly about ‘The Rainbow fish.’
They all spoke and sang beautifully, showing how grown up they have become.
Can’t wait to see their next performance.
In Foundation Stage we have been learning all about ‘Under the Sea’, linked to the story ‘Tiddler’ by Julia Donaldson. We have been very busy learning about sea creatures, making jellyfish and transforming our learning environment into an ‘under-water world’. For homework, we asked the children to make a sea creature of their choice, to display on our ‘Parent Partnership’ wall. Here is our finished display and we think it looks fantastic! Well done everyone!
This week in Foundation Stage we have been learning about Harvest and have been reading the story of ‘The Little Red Hen’.
As part of our Harvest activities we have been exploring vegetables to make our own artwork. Lots of the children chose to make faces and we talked about our favourite vegetables at home. This is Emily’s vegetable picture of a scarecrow. She thought carefully about what she could use to make the hair and the eyes and used peppers as the scarecrow’s cheeks.
We have been busy playing on the IPads and had great fun exploring the number games with our friends.
We have also made pizzas using the ingredients that the children brought in from home. They enjoyed rolling out the dough and adding their toppings but the children’s favourite part was definitely the taste testing!
