Today we stumbled across a teddy bears picnic….but they were not being safe around the fire. So, we showed them how to be safe round the fire and they showed us how to be very quiet round the fire. Then in forest school, we began learning how to light our own fires

Here are some photos from our gymnastics session today!

In art, we learnt all about Andy Goldsworthy - a sculptor who uses only natural materials. The Koalas then created their own inspired pieces. 

Attached are some pictures of the class with their trumpets. They are being taught by Mrs Gleave, with the support of Bold as Brass. The children are working towards a performance of their trumpets along with a range of other schools.

Lots of us enjoyed collecting special items from the forest floor and attaching them to our sticks with tricky bands. It’s been an afternoon of friendship and the loveliest playing at Forest school …

This term, we learnt all about autumn! We went on an Autumn hunt and learnt about deciduous and evergreen trees. 

So we have ended up having our Restart a Heart workshop this morning. They surprised us being in the area!

The children took part in a fantastic workshop and have learnt the basics of CPR.

We even had plenty of dummies so didn’t even need a teddy in the end!

We had fun making a huge piece of artwork with our friends. We turned the darkness (black paper) into light using paints and glitter.

In English we described an African setting using onomatopoeia for effect. 

Here are some photos of our themed Brazilian day! We have had fun learning to samba dance, play samba music, make brigideiros (Brazilian truffles), make carnival masks and learn all about where Brazil is located in the world. It was a great day!

Yesterday, we met our brand new buddies - we were amazing at welcoming them and reading to them. All our grown ups were ridiculously proud and even a little emotional

For our art we mixed paint to create African sunsets.
