The Reception children were all so excited to come back to school, especially when they found out we would be making and eating pancakes on Shrove Tuesday. We cut up the different fruit we wanted as a topping and talked about making healthy choices. It was a thumbs up all round.
We have started our new theme ‘Minibeasts and Megabeasts’. We have been exploring our new Bug Investigation Lab. The children decorated their own lab coats ready to be scientists and learn all about the minibeasts we can see and find outside. We have learnt how to use bug pots and can’t wait to go into the woodlands to collect some insects to look at closely.
We are really hoping we will be allowed to have our own minibeasts. Some children wrote letters to Mrs Noronha and Miss McFlynn asking if they would let us have some ants, caterpillars and stick insects. We are really hopeful!
