(Nursery and Reception voices) Our Pets Our topic for this term means that some of our pets have been in to visit! If you would like to bring your pet in after half term, please come and see me. Forest School Session 1 During our first session we put on our wellies and went out to the log cirle. Forest School Session 2 Today it was raining so we wore our waterproof suits. Putting them on independently was a real challenge, but we did it! Following on from last weeks session, we reinforced the log circle rules and listened to the sounds of birds. We concentrated on the fact that all birds sound different. We learnt that a blackbird sounds different to a blue tit etc. Forest School Session 3 This week we made homes for birds. We learnt that their homes were called nests and they were made in the shape of circles. We looked at the materials birds use to make them before we set about making our own. This year is Chinese Year of the Tiger - raaarr! We enjoyed listened to the story of how the animals were placed in order. As part of our Chinese New Year celebrations we have been tasting chinese foods. We had noodles and rice to eat with chopsticks, which was great fun, as well as prawn crackers with sweet and sour sauce and fortune cookies. We have been celebrating St David's Day.

We looked at the work of Jackson Pollock, made firework pictures on the computer and even moved like fireworks. We had hotdogs for snack, as well as apples dipped in toffee sauce and popcorn. We also started our Super Shelby Project work based around the character Little Turtle. Mendhi Hands September 2009 Recently, we sat down as a class and decided on some rules to help keep us safe and happy in school. All of these rules were suggested by the children, however i have helped them with the wording..... Our Class Rules 1. We always try to be kind to our friends. 2. We try to share and take turns. 3. We always listen to each other. 4. We always walk inside the classroom. This week we will be starting our healthy snack. Please can you provide a 75p per week contribution to cover the cost.

We all had great fun.

These will be uploaded in the next couple of days, so please look back again soon. Week beginning 14th September Thank you for all of the support you have given us this week.
