-The Reception Team.

Today Reception were visited by some friendly nurses who have taught  us all about how to keep and our hands and teeth clean and healthy.

We had lots of fun shaking hands with our friends to see how fast germs could spread.

This week we enjoyed our family forest experience!

We got our hands dirty making muddy face sculptures, that we stuck around the forest and on trees.

We learnt all about camouflage; searching for the hidden frogs, playing a hunt the eggs game and decorating moths to blend in with the natural environment.

We made bird feeders with creamed coconut and seeds, making a promise to feed them all through the winter. 

We also made stick men and decorated them with eyes and ribbons. These were taken home to live with us.

We all had a fantastic time and can’t wait to visit Calthorpe Haven again in year 1.

Walking the story

Thank you to all parents who attended our workshop!

We had a fantastic day in Reception sharing stories and enjoying fun activities.

Today we drew and talk about our favourite part of the story. We showed our pictures of the story to our friends.

In talk for writing we are sharing the story “The Ugly Duckling”

We have used our text maps and actions to retell to story to each other.
