Examining Artefacts
Year 3 have spent the afternoon as archaeologists looking at and trying to suggest uses for historical artefacts from the Stone Age.
The Gingerbread Man
As part of our Literacy programme the children will be reading ‘The Gingerbread Man’. Reception spoke about the ingredients that they would need to make a recipe. The children also weighed out the ingredients to create a perfect mixture. The children used their senses to explore the smell of the ginger and cinnamon through the mixture. During snack today Reception had a gorgeous treat and ate their baked goods.

Special Visitor
Sister Bridget came and visited the children in Reception and we all had a gorgeous morning celebrating ourselves and our family members. We prayed, sang and even danced.

Role Play
In the home corner the children acted out how a child can be held safe and snug in a parent’s arms.
I trust you God.
Just like a baby
safe and snug
being carried in a mum’s arms.
So, I can rest in your love
so gently held.
So good to be in your care
I will rest in your love for me.
Psalm 131
Myself “God knows and loves each person”
Reception have been exploring ‘myself’ topic during Religious Education.
Reception have been exploring what it means to be a part of a family. The children brought photographs in of a family member who is special to them and presented them in front of the class. Reception also made clay models of themselves and the children painted self portraits.
God says you are precious to me. I love you; I know you. I know your name. You are my child.
