Today in reception we say goodbye to Miss Browne, who has now completed her final teaching training placement with us.

She has been a huge asset to the team and will be missed.  We wish her every success as she starts her teaching career, we know she will be fabulous.

The children have created some beautiful messages for her and we wanted to share some with you:

Reception children have been learning about Vegetables and have planted some of their own in the reception garden.

We made our own vegetable patches using collage materials.

If you would like to bring in some vegetables or fruit to add to our resources it would be gratefully received.

Here are some pictures:

During the high winds we had recently one of the trees in reception became loose.

Yesterday, the tree was cut down by a tree surgeon.

We asked if we could keep the logs.

Today, the children had a wonderful time building fires and dens using the logs – it was enormous fun and we worked really well as a team.

Here are some of the photos:

This week the children have been reading the text ‘Supertato’ by Sue Hendra.  

It is about a super hero potato who protects the world from the evil peas. 

Here are some of the activities the children have been involved in:   Writing speech bubbles for Supertato   Counting carrot legs and finding the number Rescue the trapped Butternut Squash

 Make a Supertato and Evil Pea puppet

 Count the potatoes to match the number

Here is a video of the story for you to share at home:
