WOW! What a fantastic term it has been. We can’t believe how well the children have settled here at St Peter’s. From walking in on their first day not knowing their teachers or classmates to now having close friendships with others and knowing all the classroom routines. We are SO incredibly proud of them all.

This week has been a super exciting week, full of festivities and fun! We watched a pantomime, had Christmas dinner all together, walked to the post box to send our letter to Father Christmas, created lots of craft and lots more!

Today we got in the Christmas spirit and went on a fun run/walk around the school grounds whilst listening to some Christmas music and singing along. We even saw the Grinch!

This week in YR we have been learning all about The Three Little Pigs. We made class story maps and learnt actions to help us retell the story. We then completed some fun and engaging activities such as, testing materials/objects to see what would be suitable to make a house with, art and crafts, writing captions/labels using the sounds we have learnt so far and lots more!

This week we have been celebrating firework night. We have been creating lots of colourful art work and writing some words to describe them.

Well done everyone!

The children have been reading ‘The Little Red Hen’ this week and learning all about Harvest. The children have been making their own bread and then enjoyed eating it during their snack time!

What a busy week we have had! The children have settled tremendously well and are beginning to understand the classroom routines. This week in Seahorse and Starfish Class the children have been busy making friends and exploring their new classroom environments. Well done everyone!

What a special trip! The Year R children had a fantastic day in the Isle Of Wight to finish off our beach topic. We cleaned the beach, went on a scavenger hunt and even had an ice lolly as a special treat!

What a week! We have had such a lovely week exploring outside and enjoying the summer sunshine. The children have been busy making mud pies, problem solving in the water area and exploring a range of learning around the story ‘Lucy and Tom at the Seaside’. We have been learning doubles in maths and the children have blown us away with their quick understanding of these numbers.

This week the children have been exploring under the sea and creating some beautiful writing to send to Polly the pirate! They explored different sea life that live in the ocean and the children created an underwater scene to inspire their independent writing.

The children had a wonderful Forest School experience yesterday and completed a range of activities such as making spinners, hammering leaves to make pictures and leaf pressing. We also had lots of fun playing games including tug of war and relaxing in the tree hammock!
