Spring is coming to class 2.
Our beautiful expedition work
We have been learning about animals using non- fiction books and chrome books to find out some exciting facts about amphibians, birds and fish. We have worked in the groups sharing our ideas, taking turns and supporting each other.
Feed the birds
In Nursery we have loved making our own bird feeders using pinecones, lard and seeds.
We are enjoying being back at school with our friends.
We enjoyed dancing and singing at our silent disco.
Holi
Spring Festival of colour. The children enjoyed throwing paint at Mrs Ponsonby as part of our learning about the festival.
Celebrating Holi:
In India people celebrate the start of spring by enjoying a colourful festival called Holi. People throw colourful powder at each other during their celebrations. We did some fabulous artwork:
We also celebrated in school by getting very colourful……and messy!!!
We celebrated our first week all back together with a silent disco – we had a great time.
We have also enjoyed being back in our classroom and being back with our friends:
Dancing and Singing Start – Back to School
The children have loved being back where they belong 🥰 They have settled brilliantly and we are so proud of them! Check out our silent disco…
