A fantastic start to the half term for Chough Class! Yesterday, Chough Class had a wonderful start to their new English unit. They have begun exploring their new class text, The First Drawing, which will inspire their writing over the coming weeks. 📖 The children discovered that the book is a work of historical fiction, based on a true story and set around 30,000 years ago during the Stone Age. They also explored how Stone Age people used handprints as a way of signing their artwork, before creating their own handprint masterpieces! 🖐 There were lots of smiles and a real sense of pride in their creations. Well done, Chough Class – what a brilliant start to our new topic!

What a busy and exciting day in Sanderlings! 🐦 Yesterday, the Sanderlings class had lots of fun exploring the wonderful new additions to our classroom! Our new home corner has been a big hit, with so much to explore and keep little hands busy. One of our favourite activities has been singing Happy Birthday to celebrate with our very own caterpillar cake! 🎂🐛 We've also been busy practising our sentences and number sentences on the whiteboard. 🔢 There's been lots of exciting changes outside too! We've been enjoying construction, splashing in the water play and even having a go at fixing our very own car! 🚗🔧💦 So much exploring, learning and fun – what a wonderful morning everyone had!

Dear Parents and Carers, Unfortunately, due to further damage caused by the recent storms, the bike and scooter shed will need to remain temporarily closed for our return tomorrow. We hope to have it back up and running as soon as possible. In the meantime, you are welcome to use the shed at the front of the school. We will do our best to secure the front gate; however, please be aware that leaving bikes and scooters there will be at your own risk. Thank you for your patience and understanding while we work to get everything sorted. We are really looking forward to welcoming everyone back and seeing you all tomorrow morning. Thank you for your continued support. Miss Hildyard
