Hello and welcome to this weeks blog post. We started the week with sports day on Monday, it was amazing to see so many family members and the children were all fantastic! Please note that we break up for the summer at midday on Friday 19th July.  We will return on Thursday 5th September.  We would like you to take all of your children's belongings home for the summer holidays to allow us to clean and tidy.

Hello! This week we have continued making up our activity bags, we have loved seeing all of the photos and videos.  We try to put out a bag as often as we can, we will email you when a new one is available.

Hello and welcome to this week’s blog post.   We now have chicks!!  Yesterday the chicks started to hatch and we currently have four.  The children have named them Chocolate, Caroline, Claire and Aimee Dig Yellow!!!  They are very cute and the children have enjoyed looking at them. In Class 2 we have started practising for sports day races on a Monday in the school hall.  We will start practising on the school field on different days after half term.  We have been to Forest School and used the new flower press.  We have started planting (thank you for all of the donations of seeds), building with the large blocks in the garden and we found ladybird eggs on the tree.  We have continued with the cake station and the children are becoming more independent with this. In Class 1 we have baked some savory muffins due to an interest in baking. We have explored mixing juices from an orange, lime and a lemon, discovering how this may smell. W...
