We measured how tall we are at the beginning of the year. These ribbons represent our height. We get to take them home at the end of the year to see how much we’ve grown. Take a look by clicking the link below.
The children have been very busy planting over the past few weeks. We have been watching our cress grow and we planted tomatoes and peas with a partner. We have talked about the things that plants need to grow and have been looking after our plants to make sure they are healthy. Our cress has now grown and is looking lovely. We have been investigating its roots and discussing why they are important. We cannot wait to see how the tomatoes and peas turn out.
What a super morning we have had in Foundation Stage.
Grandparents and family members have visited us today to help out with gardening. They brought their green-fingers and helped us weed and plant new seeds and flowers. There was also some harvesting of last years potatoes that had been left behind. They did an amazing job and we’re very grateful for their help. Even Mrs Wilkinson and Mrs Reed picked up some good gardening tips. We talked about what the plants and seeds need to grow and made sure we didn’t dig up and of the lovely plants that were already in the ground.
We look forward to harvesting some of the things we planted. Maybe we’ll make a stew with the carrots, onions, potatoes, and herbs we planted today.
The children had a fantastic time and the rest of the class will be doing some more planting in the weeks to come.

Another busy week in Foundation Stage
The children are getting very good at retelling the 3 Billy Goats Gruff story now and next week they will be changing the story to make it their own.
On Tuesday we enjoyed a tasty treat. Most of the children chose chocolate on their pancakes, but a few chose syrup.
In PE we danced to The Greatest Showman and played invasion games in the hall.
In maths we have been thinking about 1 less and counting backwards. The children have been using number lines to help them with this and are working really hard.
Thursday was a very exciting day. All of the costumes for World Book Day were fantastic and the children enjoyed sharing stories and listening to different books. We talked about bedtime stories and how important they are.
I’m sure next week will be just exciting.
This week the children in Year 1 have worked extremely hard in their English lessons.
They have been engaging in lots of activities based on the story Lost and Found such as; describing a Polar Explorer, sequencing the story and changing parts of story!
They have finished the week off by engaging in their Hot Writes and have produced some FANTASTIC pieces of work!
The children in Y4 have made some lovely posters today to help people stay safe online. Well done.
