What a fantastic week we’ve had in FS2! The children have loved exploring Bonfire Night through lots of exciting activities. We made our own rockets and even created edible sparklers – they were a big hit!

In maths, we’ve been busy painting and exploring circles and triangles, learning all about their features and how to spot them in the world around us.

As part of our topic, ‘People Who Help Us’, we were lucky enough to have a special visit from a vet this week. The children learned all about how vets care for animals and help to keep them healthy.

It’s been a busy, fun-filled week of learning and discovery — well done, FS2!

A massive thank you to everyone who joined us for the lantern parade yesterday! What a brilliant afternoon it was, filled with singing, dancing, and a fabulous fire show! Plus, there were so many delicious treats for all to enjoy! Congratulations to our lantern winners too! Another fantastic community event that brought us all together! Can't wait for the next one! #LanternParade

On Friday, 7th November, we’re diving into our ‘people who help us’ topic with a super fun twist! We kindly ask all our FS2 children to bring their favorite teddy bear to school for our special Teddy Bear Hospital.

Good afternoon families,

School is now closed for October half term, and will, re-open to pupils and staff on Monday 3rd November. Have a restful week off 😀

What an amazing week in FS2!

We started the week with a fantastic Diwali workshop, where the children made beautiful divas, created salt rangoli patterns, and enjoyed some dancing! 💃✨

In Maths, we explored one more and one less and compared numbers up to 3.

In Literacy, we had lots of fun in Drawing Club, designing our very own super-powered pumpkins! 🎃💥

We hope everyone has a lovely, restful break next week. 🌈

After the holidays, we’re excited to begin our new topic — People Who Help Us — with lots of special visitors planned! 🚒👮‍♀️👩‍⚕️
