This week in Nursery Classwe have been learning about colour. We explored

the outside environment and experimented with mixing different colourstogether to see what would happen, which made for some interesting results

just ask us about our findings! We have also been going Frozen crazy over the

past couple of weeks and on Monday we decided to transform the home

corner into a Frozen theme! We all really enjoyed dressing up as the

characters and singing Let it Go in our loudest voices. Presshere for more.

Yesterday, Reception Class had a fantastic

day out at London Zoo. The trip opened our

theme All about Animals for this half-term

and has certainly gotten the children very

excited and full of curiosity about

animals. The sun shone most of the time

which allowed us to enjoy the day even

more, including a lovely picnic together. Wearrived just in time for the Penguin Show at

the Penguin Beach, followers by a stroll down

to Tiger Territory where we had a very up-

close experience of JJ, a beautiful Sumatran

tiger, being fed his lunch. This was one of the

highlights for lots of the children. Here of just

some the other amazing animals we

enjoyed meeting; the flea-picking monkeys,

the enormous swinging gorillas, the camels

and llamas, the gorgeous flamingos andpelicans and the many fascinating reptiles in

the reptile house. What a truly wondrous time

we had. Pressherefor much more

During our art lesson yesterday, in

Year 1, we looked at how artists

create models and small scale

sculptures to use on film sets. We

looked at some creepy and cute

aliens and monsters that havebeen used in movies and the

process used to make the final

piece. Our objective was to

make a sturdy, self-supporting

alien that had an internal

structure to help support the

body parts. We used toothpicks

for bones and tails to help thembalance and stand up! Press

In Year 2/3weve been designing and making our own pop-up

space book. The children made moving mechanisms for their

page and wrote facts about the planet they had chosen. The

children worked extremely hard and the finished pop-up pages

look amazing! Pressherefor more
