Autumn:
Bonfire Night
We are looking forward to Bonfire Night this weekend and the children have learnt about ways to keep safe at bonfire night, whether attending a firework display or having a celebration at home. Many of the children showed their impressive firework safety knowledge in our assembly on Tuesday.
Reception and Infants have learnt about Guy Fawkes' plot to blow up the Houses of Parliament and how it was luckily foiled on the 5th November 1605. We have also learnt about the ways in which we still celebrate bonfire night in Great Britain to this day. The children have decorated ginger biscuits with fireworks, make a chalk firework display and written about what they have learnt about bonfire night!
We hope everyone has a safe bonfire night this weekend however they will be celebrating!
Autumn Walk
Reception and Infants braved the wind and drizzle to embark on an autumn walk. The children were looking for signs of autumn, hoping they would see falling leaves, squirrels, conkers and much more! We collected lots of leaves to be pressed and dried for our art activities next week. The children had a great time spotting different coloured leaves that they could see being blown off the trees by the huge gusts of wind!
