Reception - Hedgehog Class
19 April 2024 - Author Visit
This week we were very lucky to have a visit from the author Emily Loyd Gale. The children were able to meet Emily and ask her questions about her books 'Mighty Maurice' and 'The Moose That Saved Christmas'. Emily's books are based around the theme of anti-bullying with an emphasis on the importance of self belief, friendship, teamwork, and love.
22 March 2024 - Spring Walk
This week we went on a spring walk. We saw some buds on trees, spring flowers, a birds nest and blossom on the trees. We also listened carefully to see if we could hear any birds tweeting. While we were walking we stopped to see the train go past on the level crossing, we watched the barriers come down and the cars and pedestrians stop. We all waved to the train as it went into the station!
