Nursery children have had a fun filled party day today.  Both nurseries joined together in the hall for pass the parcel, musical statues and disco dancing.  Children also enjoyed games and party food in their own nursery settings. 

Some fabulous independent writing today in Reception.  

Today the children wore their Christmas jumpers and took part in the School Games Santa Dash event. They had lots of fun walking and running with their friends followed by a surprise visit to see Father Christmas. How exciting!

The children in nursery are interested in learning about animals that live in cold climates. We have looked at different animals that live in the Arctic including polar bears, snowy owls and arctic foxes. We have also been exploring what happens to ice as it melts.

Reception are getting very excited for the big day.  The girls built a castle for Father Christmas so he can make their toys in it!  All three want new dolls for Christmas.

Our nursery children made a wonderful start to our Christmas assemblies today.  In our special act of worship the children sang beautifully and reminded us all of the true meaning of Christmas.  We are so proud of how amazing they all were.   Well done children!  

This week we have been looking at 2d shapes.  We have talked about the properties of the shapes, including corners and sides.  We then sorted various shapes according to the number of sides they had.

In Reception we have been using watercolours to explore mixing and different textures when we are painting.  The children loved the delicate colours the paints made. Clancy and Isabella particularly enjoyed this activity.
