Today we came to Nursery dressed up in our Halloween costumes. Some children were scary and Mrs Preston couldn’t figure out who was hiding behind the masks.
The children had some treats to finish off the day before their half term holidays.
Happy Halloween boys & girls and see you in November. ππΈπ·π§π»βοΈπ§π»

We have enjoyed learning about items related to the Hymn 'All things bright and beautiful' in September and October.
Colour played a major part and we enjoyed painting our colour wheels and studying the Rainbow Fish book.
We especially liked our Autumn Walk around the school grounds looking at the changing colours.
Y5/6 enjoyed this quick and effective art lesson today. We drew our squiggly lines for our ghosts with black marker then made up our own faces for them. We then used blue pencil to lightly highlight around the edges of our ghosts to create a 3D look. Don’t they look great !?
Next Wednesday we are having a pumpkin carving competition in school. Each class will carve/decorate their pumpkin and there will be a prize for the winning class. We contacted Fulton’s Pumpkin Patch about our competition and they very kindly donated a pumpkin for each class in our school. Thank you so much Clayton for our pumpkins…we will keep you all updated how the finished creations turn out π
πWell done to all our stars this weekπ

The nursery children have all settled in very well. We have 26 children and each of them have individually adapted to life in their new classroom. Here are a few photos to show you a snippet of what they have been getting up to over the past few weeks.
As our topic this term is ‘What’s the weather?’ We found out all about the water cycle and how rain is formed. We then went on to make our very own rain cloud in a jar. It was great fun. Check out the pictures!
