4 months ago Posted on 03rd May 2026 by Clare Andrew 🌸Summer Term🌸 In Forest School we have enjoyed making monster faces out of clay and natural materials linked to our story Where The Wild Things Are. The children were very creative and happily wrote about the monster faces they made. Our writing using our phonics is progressing well and it is lovely to see how the children are using their sound knowledge and red words to attempt any word they want to write. Our caterpillars have arrived so we have been observing how much they have grown this week before the next stage begins. We ended the week with a game of Pirate, Pirate and the draw for the lucky winner of the giant monkey took place. Have a lovely weekend and we will see you on Tuesday. 😊
5 months ago Posted on 28th Apr 2026 by Clare Andrew 🌸Summer Term🌸 We have had a busy week and we are really enjoying finding out about the book Where The Wild Things Are. The children created crowns using nature’s treasures in Forest School to become Kings or Queens like the character Max. The children were amazing at becoming Wild Things and Forest School was the perfect setting! Saint George’s Day kept us busy on Thursday and we have been busy counting larger quantities and starting to count in 2’s. We look forward to next week and look forward to the warmer weather continuing. 😊

It looks wonderful and will hopefully keep the pigeons at bay. The children have enjoyed sharing how and who they created them with. We will all enjoy looking and listening to the sounds they make. There is still time to make one if you have been busy, just bring it to school when you have made it. 😊

They arrived full of excitement, wearing a wonderful variety of costumes. Throughout the day, they enthusiastically took part in activities to find out about the legend of St George, bringing the story to life with their imagination. It was a fun and engaging way for the children to learn about Saint George’s Day while celebrating together. 😊
5 months ago Posted on 18th Apr 2026 by Clare Andrew 🌸Summer Term🌸 🌸Summer Term🌸 We have had a great first week back. The children have spent time creating some lovely story maps about their trip to Dudley Zoo and have done a fantastic job of them. The home school task of creating a garden decoration has seen the children making some absolutely fantastic mobiles, flowers and plant pots. The children are sharing them with the class and talking about how they were created and the materials they used. One beautiful design incorporated a humming bird so we used this opportunity to find out some facts about this amazing little bird. We will be finding a special place in our garden next week to place the creations to enhance our garden area and discourage the pesky pigeons! Thank you to the parents who have already volunteered to come and talk about their jobs with us, if anybody else would like to join in please send me a message and I will suggest some dates for you to come and visit us. Wishing you all a lovely weekend. 😊
6 months ago Posted on 14th Mar 2026 by Clare Andrew 🌸Spring Term🌸 This week we have spent time exploring how we celebrate Mother’s Day. We have talked about celebrating love, kindness and care. It maybe our mummy, grandmothers, aunties, stepmoms, carers or other role models who guide us, give us hope and love us everyday. We had a lovely story about a baby owl and a mummy owl which was shared by our mystery storyteller this Friday. Thank you for visiting us it was a perfect way to end the week. Wishing you all a wonderful weekend. 😊
6 months ago Posted on 08th Mar 2026 by Clare Andrew 🌿Spring Term 2🌿Week 1/2 🌿 We have had a lovely, busy couple of weeks in class! The first week back the children spent time exploring Chinese New Year. We learned about Chinese New Year, exploring some traditions and the zodiac animals. The children also practised writing Chinese numbers using mud and sticks in Forest School. This week in Forest School, the children went on a spring hunt, spotting buds, shoots, and other signs that spring is on the way. Spring in our forest school and in our own gardens is a lovely way to understand our Christian Value of Hope. When spring comes something wonderful happens as little green shoots push up through the soil just like how God is always at work bringing new life, new beginnings and hope. Thank you for the fantastic effort with World Book Day costumes. The children looked amazing as their favourite characters and enjoyed sharing their love of stories. A big thank you to our super grown-ups who came in as mystery storytellers. The children loved guessing who was reading the story before the big reveal! Wishing you a lovely weekend! 😊
