Oh no the Easter Bunny has lost all his eggs. We had to help to find them all scattered around our school field, good working as a team everyone!

Our "Show and Tell" discussions have got off to an amzing start this term, the children have learnt so much and had some real hands on opportunities! Thank you to all involved!

We learnt all about the story of Easter and then went to visit our local church to see which symbols we could find.

We have been measuring length with non-standard units. As part of this we measured our own footprints to see who had the longest feet.

Happy St Patrick's Day! We made shamrocks to decorate our classroom - which also cross-related to our Plants topic this term!

After reading "Jack and the Beanstalk," we made our own castle in the sky and planted our own magic beans to see if we can grow a beanstalk to the giant's castle.
