It has been lovely to have the children back and to do lot’s of great learning. The school has been far too quiet without them!

This week we have been learning about the traditional tale ‘Jack and the Beanstalk’. The children wrote what they would like to find at the top of their beanstalk and also wrote a wanted poster for the giant.

We have planted lots of vegetables in our vegetable patch including carrots, cabbage and courgette! The children enjoyed planting and sowing the seeds and have been checking everyday to see if there has been any changes. We also created a scarecrow to scare away the birds while we’re not in school!

In maths this week we have been learning all about 3D shapes. The children have been learning the names and properties for each shape and have been looking for 3D shapes in the environment.

To help raise money for sports relief we took part in the school skipathon, played dodgeball, baked some delicious raisin cookies and took part in dancing and singing to the sport relief song.

As the weather is starting to get warmer can we ask that you make sure that your child brings in a clearly labelled water bottle. Can you also ensure that your child brings in their book bag daily so that we are able to read with them.

We hope you have a lovely weekend!
