This week in FS2 we’ve been super busy and having lots of fun while learning!

Cooking Adventures

We enjoyed making roasted pumpkin and sticky ginger buns! The children loved getting hands-on in the kitchen and trying new flavours.

Staying Healthy

We learned all about how to look after our bodies — eating well, brushing our teeth, and exercising. We also explored different food groups and talked about Fair Trade and why it’s important.

Palm Oil & the Rainforest

The children looked at which foods contain palm oil and discovered what can happen to the rainforest when certain products are made. Lots of thoughtful discussions!

Maths – Sequencing Events

In maths, we have been learning how to sequence events and talk about daily routines.

Sing-Along Performance

We’ve also been busy practising for our Sing-Along performance — the children are very excited! Don’t forget to grab your tickets!

What a fantastic week of learning!

Healthy Eating

In FS2, we've been diving into the world of healthy eating, and we had fun trying boiled pumpkin! After the taste test, we used our rainbow fan to discuss all the delicious flavors. It was such a fun way to learn about nutrition and explore new foods together! #HealthyEating Read more

Many thanks

Despite lots of illness this week, we have had another amazing time in FS2 ! The children have been absolute superstars.

In maths, we explored squares and rectangles, finding them all around our classroom and using them in our activities, learning about their features.

In literacy, we continued our exciting Supertato story work — and things took a dramatic turn!

We kicked off the week with a huge surprise when we discovered that the Evil Pea had escaped!

Luckily, our quick-thinking detectives in FS2 got straight to work, creating brilliant wanted posters and warning everyone to keep their eyes peeled for that mischievous pea!

The highlight of the week was definitely all the fantastic entries to our Supertato Spud Competition. Thank you so much to everyone for your creativity and effort — the children absolutely loved sharing their potato superheroes!

Here’s to a healthier, happy week ahead!

We want to invite FS2 parents to our Phonics and Early Reading Workshop on Tuesday, 2nd December at 9 AM! 🎉 Come along to discover how we teach phonics and reading in school. It’s a fantastic opportunity to learn and get involved in your child’s learning journey.

Mark your calendars – we can’t wait to see you there! 📚✨

Dear families!

We’re excited to share that our children are having a blast during playtime, and the OPAL project is really taking off! This week, we’re on the lookout for any old musical instruments, wellies, and sandbox toys you no longer use. If you've got any spare items lying around, we’d be absolutely thrilled to give them a new life in our play sessions!

Also, don’t forget to check out some fun snapshots of the kids enjoying their lunchtime activities from last week!

Thank you so much for your ongoing support!

* ⭐️ Reception Value & Pride Award Winners⭐️ *

Good afternoon families,

Please join us in congratulating our Reception pride and value award winning pupils this week.

FS2 have had another amazing week of learning! In maths we’ve been having fun practicing our composition of numbers to 5. In literacy, the children have absolutely loved listening to the story of Supertato! We even got creative and designed our own super veggies!

We’ve also been building sentences using our shape coding boards and working hard to sound out words, trying to hear as many sounds as we can.

A big thank you to all the parents who joined our phonics sessions! It’s so wonderful to have you in class supporting your little ones' learning journey.

Make sure to keep an eye out for all the exciting events coming up! We have an owl visit and a parent breakfast focusing on oral health – it’s going to be fun! And don’t forget to grab your tickets for our winter sing-along. Plus, keep those entries coming in for our Supertato spud competition!

Next week, we’re looking forward to even more fantastic learning adventures!
