Forest school

Unfortunatley because of the wind we were unable to go up to the Drumbles forest school site this week but Hedgehog class didn’t let that stop them! We had a fantastic session on the school grounds where we made natural kites. We really enjoyed collecting natural items, attaching them to string and then using them as kites!

Hedgehog Maths

Next week in maths, Hedgehog class will continue their number work. We will be looking at different numbers and how we can partition them. On Tuesday, we will be looking at the number 6. In order to do our activity, we are going to need some empty egg boxes. If you have any at home that you no longer need, please send them in by Tuesday morning.

Thanks,

Mrs Farmer

Addition

216

Hedgehog class have been learning about addition in maths this week. Yesterday, the Reception children went outside to learn about adding two groups together using hoops and beanbags.

Noah’s Ark

As part of our child initiated play this week we looked at the Noah’s Ark story from the Bible. We enjoyed finding out about all of the animals that Noah saved on his ark! Some of us chose to make an ark from construction materials and a few of the girls chose to act out the story using the small world ark.

Mrs Ball also presented a Headteacher’s Award to Seren and Amber from Hedgehogs who participated and helped at the Village Homegrown Show at the weekend; well done to the girls and all the children whose artwork went on display.
