This morning the EYFS shared a very special treat by joining author Nick Sharrat in a Zoom call to listen to his brand new book Oh No! Shark in the Snow!
We were the very first audience to hear Nick Sharratt read this funny, festive tale, and discover all the amazing things about his Shark in the Park series. He also gave use a mini lesson in illustrating.
We loved it!
EYFS staff and children couldn’t believe their eyes this morning. The classrooms had been transformed into Christmas Wonderlands! Nobody knew who had worked their magic until Mr. Payne checked the CCTV.
The Foundation Stage Staff were very impressed with how respectful the children were when learning about Remembrance Day.
Here are pictures of some of the activities we took part in to mark the occasion.
EYFS have been celebrating Diwali! We’ve made lanterns, diya lamps and created our own mehndi patterns too!
We loved learning about the festival of light.
We have had a brilliant week creating spooky mummies, exploring our amazing pumpkins and making spooky spells!
This morning, the EYFS children had a fantastic time completing our sponsored toddle to Cornthwaite Park. The staff were very proud of how sensible the children were! We loved spotting all local sights and seeing signs and numbers all around us 😊
I think there will be lots of sleepy heads tonight!
This week we are learning about Harvest in EYFS. As part of our topic, we have been baking bread. We looked at the ingredients together and talked about the equipment that we needed. The best part was definitely tasting it!
Today we were very lucky to have two special visitors in Reception. Victoria and Sharon came to talk to us about the importance of keeping our hands clean and brushing our teeth correctly. They even taught us a special hand-washing song!
We’ve had a wonderful day in EYFS celebrating ‘Bring Your Grandparent To School Day’. We had so much fun doing lots of arts and crafts, decorating yummy biscuits and showing everyone our lovely classrooms. We can’t wait to do it again very soon!
We have been learning about the Jewish celebration of Sukkot. To celebrate, we each made a special plate to give to a friend and then had a special EYFS picnic.
