• A busy week!

  Fri 26 Mar 2021

  We have been very busy in Jupiter this week. We have been ordering numbers to 50 and learning to count in 2s in Maths. We learnt a poem called Bear with actions and spotted the rhyming words in it in Literacy. We have also started spotting the first signs of Spring around school and have even managed to fit in some fun with the parachute!

  

• Being Active!

  Fri 26 Mar 2021

  This week, Saturn have been very active. Throughout the week, we have enjoyed a lot of different activities. We have enjoyed yoga and gymnastics in the hall and orienteering and games outside. Also, we have been in the woods to create maps and observe the changing environment.

  

• Map reading in Mercury!

  Fri 26 Mar 2021

  This week, Mercury have been exploring different kinds of maps. We have used terrain, satellite and StreetView on Google Maps, and decided which is best for different situations. Then we have examined OS maps of our local area, using grid references and different scales.

  We also got out and about using our new orienteering course, which everyone really enjoyed!

  

• Transient Artwork

  Mon 22 Mar 2021

  Today Neptune used natural resources, found both in the woods and around the school grounds, to create a piece of artwork. Before going outside, we looked at some examples of nature art however, the children had to be very creative as some of the resources used in the examples were seasonal objects that aren’t around at the moment. Some children chose to work in groups while others worked independently. I think you’ll agree their final pieces are fantastic!

  

• Biscuit architects!

  Mon 22 Mar 2021

  Venus had great fun designing and building structures using biscuits.

  

• Spring creations

  Mon 22 Mar 2021

  Venus thought of things that reminded them of Spring. Then they collected natural materials to create their Spring artwork.

  

• Bear fun in the woods

  Fri 19 Mar 2021

  Jupiter had a fun morning in the woods. First we acted out the bear hunt story with our actions. Then we went on a special bear hunt and finally we built our own obstacles to add to the story “we can’t go over them, we can’t go under them, we’ve got to go through them!”

  

• Saturn’s Creative Week

  Fri 19 Mar 2021

  This week, Saturn have created imaginative artwork in the style of Ken Done, made puppets, celebrated our differences and enjoyed Red Nose Day.

  

• Come Outside…

  Fri 19 Mar 2021

  We had a lot of fun staying active this week. The week started with an unexpected visitor to Forest School, can you see him hiding in the trees?

  We’ve explored balancing on a slack line, tree climbing, playing giant ten pin bowling and finished the week with a race around the field and a roly-poly race.
