What a great transition day. The children were really excited to go in to class 1 with Mrs Parker and Mrs Pearce. They had a great time enjoyed having three play times and but I believe they were all shattered by the end of the day.
We had had a week of thinking about kindness, gratitude and people that we trust.
We have been talking about the things we are good at to make us feel great!
In math's this week we have drawn maps and made obstacle courses outside.
In art we made a moving picture of Gerald the Giraffe and continued the drawing of a Giraffe.
What another busy week 2 more to go!

What a fantastic trip we have on Thursday.
Staff and children thoroughly the whole day.
We saw many wonderful animals including: giant Lizards, lemurs, meerkats, duck, parrots, otters, butterflies , crocodiles, ants..........
Photo's of the trip will be posted next week!
What a warm week we have had looking at animals in our woodland and deciding what we would like best and which would be a suitable pet.
What feature our animals have how many legs, fur or feathers? We have also touch on classification of animals putting them into categories of: reptile, mammals, birds, fish.
We have been adding numbers together using our skills and writing number sentences.
Next week is transition week on the 2nd July.
You might want to talk to your children about their new teacher Mrs Parker and moving to Y1 in September.
It is such an exciting time for your child and to some it may be a little unsettling so the transitions are to reassure the children. It will then happen smoothly in September and the children are ready and comfortable in their new classroom. They may have questions that you can answer for them.
Thank you for your support at home.
