Our Nursery children have enjoyed setting up and playing sound bingo this week. This has supported them in learning their initial sounds. We have had great fun on a treasure hunt around the classroom to find all the objects we need for the game! #eyfs #earlyyears https://t.co/blo1FlEfiE

Before lockdown, we learned about bees and how important they are. So to help the bees, we planted some bee bombs. They flowered, but due to lockdown, not all the children got to see the results. This year, they are going strong for us all to enjoy! 🐝 #outdoored #beebombs https://t.co/JJyJyD1hsS

Term 6 started well in Woodland Learning yesterday. Year 1&2 used their maths skills to order the length of different sticks. They also learned to carry and transport them safely around our wooded area. Great work everyone! 🪵🌿 #woodlandlearning #forestschool #outdoorlearning https://t.co/KMOLc1gFdG

It was ‘free choice’ for Year 5&6 today for their final Woodland Learning session of term 5. So, they chose to make dens, play with mud and make ivy crowns! 🪵🌿🍁#outdoored #woodlandlearning #forestschool https://t.co/KEvdxtqEkh

Year 5&6 played trust games with a partner in Woodland Learning this week. Whilst blindfolded, their partner guided them to a tree and back to the circle. They then had to guess which tree they were guided to by touch! Great team work everyone. 🪵🌿#woodlandlearning #outdoored https://t.co/OJ44j6cgF9
