On Friday, Reception visited Bill Quay Farm to start their new topic ‘Ready Steady Grow’. We fed the pigs, petted the goats, stroked a rabbit and ferret and observed the alpacas, geese, ducks and emus. We then enjoyed our lunch on the cozy old double decker bus.

Reception enjoyed World Book Day today, we started the day with breakfast with a book and then we have shared stories in class, with our buddies and been in different house groups to share stories too

As part of our topic ‘Signs of Spring’, reception took a walk to see if we could spot any signs of spring, we finished the trip at the park.   We enjoyed listening to the birds, spotting the daffodils and feeling the trees.

Reception had a lovely time tasting yummy pancakes in Tuesday whilst listening to Mr Wolf’s Pancakes. We have been colouring pancakes, making pancakes out of play dough and creating pancake faces using our cutting skills.

In Reception, we have been talking about toys from the past as part of our topic ‘Long Ago’. We then made peg dolls to add to our small world area in class.

Reception enjoyed an afternoon in the forest garden.  We explored the area and then planted our own vegetables and flowers.

As part of receptions topic ‘Long Ago’, we have been looking at baby toys.  We discussed how and why they are different to our toys and what materials they are made from.

As part of reception’s topic ‘Long Ago’, we have been looking at the different seasons and how it affects the weather and the environment around us. We created our own trees to show the different seasons.
