Spring 1
We learned about collage in Art, and how to use different materials to build up texture in our art work. We worked together as a class to create a collage of Florence Nightingale, who will be learning about this half term.
Skippers and Admirals enjoyed Outdoor Learning. We had to use our listening skills to find our partners while we were blindfolded!
To start our 'Helpers at Hand' topic, we were really lucky to be visited by Helen, a vet with the RSPCA. She told us about her job and how she looks after the animals in her care. She explained about microchips and let us try and find out which cuddly dog had been microchipped. We also all got to try on some of her vet gloves...the 'cow gloves' were extremely long! A highlight was meeting two of her furry friends - Cinnamon and Pumpkin the guinea pigs!
We spent our first day back after the Christmas break continuing our longitudinal study of minibeasts in the school grounds. We worked in teams (joined by Skippers) to see what we could spot in the garden, on the playground and on the field.
