Having a fantastic celebration!
This morning we worked very hard on how to hold a pencil. The children really concentrated. We then put our mark making skills to the test and had a go at drawing Ravana, the ten headed demon, that we had read about in the story of Rama & Sita. There were lots of circles to draw and each one needed a cross looking face on it! Great work!


A lovely Stay & Play with so many of our parents attending.
The children loved sharing all that we do with their families.





Some of our children painted Autumn leaves but we hadn’t got any orange paint!
However, Mrs Silverwood showed them something very clever…
Roo said, “We mixed it. Red and yellow to orange.”
Good work Roo!
In our current story ‘Titch’ the big brother and sister both have a kite.
We thought we’d have a go at making our own kites. The children had to decorate their cut out shape, then cut a piece of ribbon for the tail, stick it in the right place then add a string to hold on to too.

Then they were ready to go!
Roo told me that we needed to wind to make our kites fly! Well done Roo!


Then later on, instead of doing our Write Dance exercises, we changed it to Kite Dance! Who would have thought that flying kites could help us develop our handwriting in the future!
After eating all of Mrs Silverwood’s ingredients for porridge on Wednesday she didn’t have any left to make her porridge for breakfast on Thursday! So some of our superstars wrote out shopping lists so she knew what she needed to buy. Well done to Myla and Mia. They were able to tell us what they had written on their lists!


Today some of our children worked together to draw out maps of everything that they thought Goldilocks might see on her walk through the wood. They came up with all sorts of ideas; trees, flowers, grass, the three bears, some birds and… a dragon!


We had some extremely ticklish toes in F1 today as we started our fabulous, but secret, creations!
