As part of our castle’s topic, 1BR had a fantastic time in the art studio with Mr Johnson and Mr Siddle today! They each had a terracotta clay castle door to carve into and decorate using a variety of techniques, tools and wooden stampers and it was great fun! Their concentration and involvement with this was fantastic! We can’t wait to go back and to see our clay doors once they have been fired and glaze them. Emma Bonwick
Year 1 have been enjoying some time in the outdoor classroom. We have introduced some new sets of tools for the children to use and they have been exploring how to use them. So much hammering going on!! They have been making ramps, using small world play, building castles and using the mud kitchen. Antoinette Faure

Reception have travelled across the globe, learning all about China and their New Year celebrations.
We have tried to extend the children`s palette by tasting different Chinese food and eating with chopsticks which proved to be quite a challenge. We learnt about how we can manipulate shapes in the game of Tangram and enjoyed our own Chinese take away in the class.
We have even tried our hand at writing Chinese numbers while making Chinese lanterns. The highlight of the week was using the Dragon head masks we made and doing some dragon dancing accompanied by drummers 🙂
