We loved expressing ourselves by singing, dancing and being creative during our Fun Friday session!
We enjoyed our sensory mark making which made us very messy but very happy.

Today, we looked at the same piece by Alexander Calder but our focus was on skill development. We worked on how we held our brush, how we applied the colour and how we used small controlled strokes to cover an areas effectively with colour.
Our little Hubbers have been very busy making there own personal autumnal hats to wear and wreaths to go on their houses.
We gathered all the fallen leaves on our nature walk then waited until all the leaves had dried out before starting our craft activities.
We enhanced our fine motor skills by very carefully placing each leaf on our hat and wreath before using our glue stick to complete.
We loved the sensory feel of the crunchy leaves.
We were really very proud of our HUB team during the Cross Country Run this afternoon!
Lots of determination demonstrated here! Well done everybody!
Such excitement in our Hub today as it was our first community visit to Pickering Road Community Orchard.
We travelled in style in our minibus, enjoying the ride as we observed our local area.
Rosie and all the wonderful volunteers look after us so well during our visit.
We picked our own scrumptious apples.
We tasted some juicy apples.
We then went back to our Hub and made some ‘Gruffalo Crumble’ to take home for our tea. It was delicious.
During this unit on Place Value, we have made great use of tools to help us represent numbers, partition, expand and find 1/10 more and less than a given number.
We have grown in confidence to explain our calculating using sentence stems to help us structure our answers.
As Artists, we looked at a piece by Alexander Calder called ‘Les Masques’ which was painted in 1970.
We discussed the bold use of shapes and colours and shared our opinions on this piece. We then enjoyed creating our own interpretation.
We listened to feedback and worked hard to improve our techniques.

Today, we really enjoyed working with our special visitor, Lisel who led a mindful Yoga session for us. We were stretching, breathing and relaxing in this totally chilled out session! Check out our wonderful balancing skills…
