Pre-School had lots of sensory fun retelling ‘We’re Going on a Bear Hunt’.

Today Reception have been busy adding 2 amounts together.

We have had a lovely time at our VE picnic.

In Art, we worked together to create a 3D landscape of Pendle Hill using natural materials.

This week we have wrote our own letter from the bears to Goldilocks saying how sad she made us feel when she broke baby bear’s chair.

We have started our new P.E topic which is Transport – the children have enjoyed pretending to be cars and learning about the traffic light system

The police came on their horses to visit us on Monday. This was very exciting.

In maths we are looking at numbers beyond 10 and verbally counting and recognising the patterns. The children played games were they had to spot which number tower was missing and we’ve also played go fish and the children got to pick a number of fish and we counted verbally how many we had altogether.

We’ve been spending a lot of time outside now that the weather is improving which means it’s getting hotter also – we would be really grateful if you could send in sun cream for your child labelled if possible in their bag and also a sun hat with their name in. We do have spare sun hats at school. Water bottles as well please.

This afternoon, 30th April, Mrs Duckett and the year 5’s came and told Class 1 all about Food for Life. The children voted for how to improve lunchtime and then they got to plant cress.

Pre-School have been learning about how to look after our bodies. One child said she likes to relax so we turned our playground into ‘Holy Trinity Spa’. Pre-School had a fantastic afternoon relaxing in the sun.

We came into the classroom after our Easter break to find that someone had been in our woods. They had broken a chair, eaten some porridge and we found some golden hair. We investigated who it could be and decided it was Goldilocks! We then made some ‘wanted’ posters to try and find her.

We have been building numbers beyond 10 (up to 13)

We have been enjoying the lovely sunshine whilst doing our drawing club learning.

Something very exciting was parked in the car park today!

Following on from this we were invited to have a turn with the hose and look inside the fire engine. This was so exciting and the children were so well behaved.

We have been exploring number bonds to 10 (3 parts)

Having fun playing in the sun!

This week in preschool, we are focusing on the story Jasper’s Beanstalk. We will be doing lots of activities surrounding this story.
In the play dough the children are exploring different materials to make their very own beanstalks.

In the home corner, the children are making Jasper some breakfast.
In literacy, we have read the story Jasper’s Beanstalk and we have talked about what might be at the top of our beanstalks and then we have drawn them.

We have enjoyed playing outside and having our snack in the sun.

Reception have been finding 1 more.

We have been learning about ‘Shrove Tuesday’. We watched Miss Crankshaw make pancakes and then we got to eat them. Yummy!

We have been sorting different representations of 9 & 10.

Pre-School have had lots of fun making  play dough pancakes.

We have been on a nature walk around our school grounds and made nature catchers with what we found.

We have been ordering caterpillars from shortest to longest.

Reception have made and labelled a lifecycle of a butterfly out of pasta.

We have ordered ourselves from shortest to tallest.
