 We recently had a Numbers day and we celebrated all things number by dressing up and  playing a lot of games and having a lot of fun while we learnt more about numbers. 

 

EYFS Numbers day

 

There’s nothing quite like getting lost in a good book! Just ask Brown Bear (he’s one of our favourites).

Brown Bear, Brown Bear, what do you see?

I see children looking at me.

Children, children, what do you see?

We see… books, books and more books!

 

 

From zigzags and dots to circles and wiggles… We love to practise our mark making!

... But what shall we use to draw with?! Pens, pencils, crayons, chalk…? There’s no stopping us!

 

 Robins went troll hunting! We trip trapped over the bridges by Shaftesbury Lake but we only found troll poo and a note form the troll to say he had gone to Coate Water.  Some of the children are sure they saw him swimming away and others reliably informed me that this is because there are crocodiles in the lake! So be careful everyone!

 

 We had a lot of fun rehearsing and performing our Nativity! 

 

 

 Robins watched some sparklers burn as part of our topic on Celebrations. We learnt that a lot of lots of people light fireworks when they are celebrating Diwali, fireworks night, New Years or a wedding. We wrote a poem about fireworks. 

 

 We had a lovely time looking for signs of Autumn and telling the stories of Percy The Park Keeper After the Storm in our beautiful grounds. We found so many acorns this year!

We are a Big Brush Club school. This is an initiative by the government to encourage children to do a good job at cleaning their teeth. 

As you know, all the children clean their teeth in school now because of this scheme.

Here is a link to the website which tells you all about the scheme.
