Dinosaur adventures

Today the children have been reading the story of 'Togg and Leftover' which is about a caveman that finds an egg left over from the days of the dinosaurs. Miraculously, the egg hatches to produce a dinosaur baby!
Over the next few weeks we will be acting out the story in the forest, pretending to hatch our own baby dinosaurs and build shelters for them.
Today we learnt about dinosaurs and how they were adapted to survive. We learnt about carnivores, herbivores and omnivores. We made some dinosaurs out of clay eggs, produced some dinosaur collage and learnt all kinds of dinosaur facts.

Oh what a wonderful world!

Welcome back to a new term. The children have returned to school full of excitement and boundless energy for the new term ahead. We are starting a new topic called 'Oh what a wonderful world'. During the next six weeks we will be exploring different countries around the world. We have already started with the Arctic and had some interesting conversations about the climate, Arctic animals and Inuit people!

Today we produced some fantastic icy artwork with igloos and snowy scenes. We have talked in detail about the different animals that live in the Arctic and how their bodies are designed to survive in cold temperatures. We even learnt how Inuit people build igloos. We will all be fine if the snow comes to England this winter!

Happy New Year!

Here are some lovely photos of our fantastic and talented children performing in their school play 'Stable by Starlight'. We are so proud of how hard they worked to learn their lines and all of the songs that they sung so beautifully. Well done everybody.
