Sport Relief day

We have had a great day celebrating "Sport Relief". We started the day off with a Zumba session in the hall, then did our daily mile around the big playground and did some exercises. We then had lots of physical challenges to do back in the outdoor area of the F2 unit. We will definitely sleep well tonight!

World Book Day Fun!

We have had a lovely end to World Book Week when our parents/ carers came into school and shared story books with us.

World Book Week

We have had a great week in school for World Book Week. We all had to bring in our favourite books from home which we shared with our friends, and we had to draw and write about them. We also did some paired reading with our friends in Year 2. We shared and read stories together.

We also had a visit to our local library in Radcliffe on Trent. The Librarian showed us all around the library and we sang some songs and read stories. Our grown ups that came with us also helped us choose some stories to read together. We had a great time.

On Monday we celebrated Remembrance Day. We talked all about why we wear poppies and looked at some medals from the war . We had lots of activities in the unit and we all had a quiet time to Remember .

Visit from the Wildlife Trust

We have had a brilliant time today with Sarah from Nottinghamshire Wildlife Trust. We have been in the school grounds looking for signs of Autumn.

We had to use mirrors to look up in the trees, we made clay hedgehogs, went on a colour hunt and made leaf mobiles.

We think Autumn is fantastic!

Signs of Autumn

Wow ! What a lot of beautiful harvest vegetables we have had in F2 today. Jack's Grandad has a big farm and he sent us 3 big boxes full of vegetables that he grows . We talked about how they grow , how we eat them and had a close look at them with a magnifying glass. After lunch we drew some of them to show you at our Harvest festival on Monday.

Today we did some yoga in the school hall. The story was about being on the farm and all of our moves were about the animals . Can you see how tricky they were ?

What a great start we have had to this term with the children settling well into their new class.

We have made lots of new friends and have been getting to know where everything is. Next week we will be going over into the school hall to do some yoga and P.E but we will only be taking off our shoes and socks for for the first few weeks. We will be adding photographs over the next few weeks so that you can see what we've been up to .

Me, myself and I Autumn 1.docx

Welcome to Ladybird class.

We have a busy first half term ahead where we will be getting to know you and introducing our new topic "Me, myself and I".

Just a reminder, make sure you send your child into school with their "discovery bags", as we will be discussing these in circle times with the rest of the class.

Our F2 newsletter in September will have lots of information about the upcoming term.

One date for your diary already is our Harvest Festival celebration at St Mary's church on Monday 7th Oct in the afternoon.

We are really looking forward to seeing everyone in their new school uniforms and shiny shoes!

Have a wonderful summer.

See you all in September.
