Happy Half Term!

We have been very busy in YR and I am sure that the children will now appreciate a very restful holiday, spending time relaxing and recovering from bugs! We have lots of exciting trips and experiences coming up, but hope your children have told you all about what they have already had. Make sure you ask them about the vet visit and our friends from Pets at Home!

 

Have a great week,

Bug hunting

Today (Friday) saw us taking part in a whole school STEM day (looking at science, technology, engineering and mathematics). We made our own magnifying glasses out of plastic cups, elastic bands and cling film and then hunted for bugs in the woods which we looked at using our magnifying glasses. We poured water on to the top of the cling film and this helped to make our bugs and leaves look bigger… It was really fun and the children were very engaged. See if you can find some bugs in your garden at home?

Have a lovely weekend
