We had great fun creating games on micro bits in our workshop this afternoon! Ask your child what they enjoyed about it!
Book Exchange
Book Exchange returns next week! Years 4-6 will be in Monday afternoon and EYFS up to Year 3 will be on Wednesday. Children need to bring in a book, leave it in their bag and then when called they will have the chance to go to the dining room and exchange for a new one! Simple!
Spot the deer/muntjac
Upper key stage 2 were treated to a spot of nature, this morning. A small deer/muntjac was eating grass on our playing fields. The children in Rowan, Spruce and Willow were in awe. 🦌
Lunchtime artwork!
Here is a great example of Andy Goldsworthy style art that the children did with Miss Benn on the KS2 field! I’m sure you will agree it is beautiful!
