Today was very exciting, we had a visit from the Police!  We explored their van, tried on their hats and found out what it was like to be locked in the cage at the back of the van!

As part of our topic 'People Who Help Us' we were lucky enough to have some parents come into school to tell us all about their jobs as doctors and nurses.  

Lunar New Year Celebrations included a fantastic Dragon Dance workshop!

We used fans, parasols and a dragon to perform to music.  

We have been learning about what life was like long ago.  We looked at some old fashioned objects, did the washing and dressed up.

Today we celebrated Down Syndrome Awareness Day and all wore odd socks to school!  This was to highlight similarities and differences - we were all wearing socks but every one was different, just like us! 

Then we had a visit from Mrs Bun who had lost the Gingerbread Man and ... guess what, we found him in our school!

What an exciting week ...

We have made and decorated delicious Gingerbread Men!

The Koala class made crumble. 

We picked the apples, cut them and then made the crumble.  It was delicious!

We have had a great time this week learning about birthdays and raising money for Children in Need!

Fun in the sun! 

We love playing in the big sandpit and exploring our garden.

We have enjoyed learning about autumn and harvesting the apples and vegetables.

We baked apple crumble, it was delicious!

We have all had a great first week.

Take a look at some of the things we have done.

Steven came in with balance bikes for us all to use. 

It was great fun!

In maths we are learning to use positional language. We asked our friends to stand next to, behind, on or under and then used the camera to take photos of each other. We also had lots of fun learning about Diwali, going on a shape hunt and making bird feeders. 

Exploring our school.

This week we have been learning about the story of Christmas. 

We visited Christ Church Fulwood and acted out the story in school.
