On Thursday we went onto the school grounds to see what creatures we could find as part of our long term study in Science. We had a great time looking for all sorts of creatures, finding spiders, slugs, centipedes, woodlice and flies (which were quite hard to catch!). We will be looking at the habitats where we found them and seeing how the habitat will change over the year and whether the creatures remain in the same place.

We think Sophie was a little scared of the spider!

Today, we wore our Christmas jumpers and bought in items for the ‘Love Christmas’ campaign. Thank you very much for all the donations made – it will really help to make someone’s Christmas that little bit better.

**Reminders:
