yeAR R

A sleepy week

18/6/2025

 
 We have managed to stay awake this week despite lots of our learning having a sleepy theme.  We have talked about the benefits of a good night's sleep, how we get ready for bedtime and how sleep time was different in the olden days.  We made sleep potions, and even the play dough smelt of lavender!  You will see the dreamcatchers we made on display in class.

Year R out and about

We have started our final half term in Year R by visiting Mrs Glover's farm and local gardens.  We are amazed by all the things we can see just around the corner from our classroom.  

VE Day Celebrations

Growing

This half term we are learning all about about growing.

This week we have planted our beans and read these texts. 

Easter 2025

We have learnt about Easter celebrations and signs of Spring.  We have made cards, completed treasure hunts and made our own Easter gardens and potions using spring plants.  We enjoyed a glorious sunny afternoon in the forest school area.  Another busy week to end the term off nicely. 

Pirate Adventures

There has been lots of swashbuckling learning in Year 'ar'.  We have made treasure maps, created treasure chest ideas, found out about Pirates and competed a treasure hunt.  We have also used watercolour paints to make seascapes.  For drawing club we have read 'The treasure of Pirate Frank' and watched Captain Pugwash.
