Spring Term 2025

Penguins and Antarctica

We found out lots of different facts about Penguins and the contrasting environment of Antarctica. We read lots of stories about Penguins.

Our favourites were ‘Penguin’ by Polly Dunbar and ‘Lost and Found’ by Oliver Jeffers. We painted pictures of different type of penguins.

People Who Help Us

We learned all about the Emergency Services - Firefighters, Police Officers and Doctors and Nurses.
We designed and made models of Fire Engines.

 

   

 

     

Doug Hyde Art Week

Doug Hyde is the most popular contemporary living artist in the UK.

Here are some of his pictures.

 

 
We created our own paintings in the style of Doug Hyde, using printing and painting techniques.

  

  

  

 

   

    

Bikeability

We had a fantastic week, with daily lessons, learning to ride balance bikes. By the end of the week many of us could ride a pedal bike unaided!

  

      

   

         

Goldilocks and the Three Bears

We read the story of Goldilocks and the Three Bears. We made porridge and wrote letters from Goldilocks apologising to the Bears.

The children made warning signs to scare Goldilocks away.

World Book Day March 6th 2025

We wore our pyjamas to school and brought in our favourite bedtime stories to share.

  

         

    

         

   

         

We’re Going on a Bear Hunt!

In Literacy we have been learning the story of ‘We’re going on a Bear Hunt’ by Michael Rosen.

We made our own bear caves.

The children had to make sure they could fit the bear in through the mouth of the cave, the cave had to be dark inside and camouflaged on the outside.

The children also designed bright and reflective outfits for a bear so the bear could be seen in the cave.

They tested their designs in a dark tent with torches!
