Wow, look at our AMAZING art work. We have painted butterflies, used the computer to also create butterfly pictures. We talked about what we want to be when are grown up and we painted some pictures.
This week our focus book 📖 is “ Monkey Puzzle” the children enjoyed listening to the story and some were even the characters from the story. We all agreed that the butterfly 🦋 was a very special friend and we are ALL going to try to be more like that towards our friends in Pre school. We created our own butterflies by doing symmetrical paintings.
Wow what a fun packed “ Pyjama Day” we have had in Pre School. When we arrived there were tents, wigwams, sleeping bags, cushions and blankets everywhere. We spent the morning reading and sharing books with our friends and teachers, Even James Morris came to join in with the fun and shared a BIG BOOK with us.For snack we had hot toast with butter and some hot chocolate “ Delicious “.We use our imagination and pretended we were camping ⛺️ We made a campfire and toasted marshmallows.
Physical development- we practice these skills when we use the bikes, bubble car and our new go kart daily. Look at us all using our senses to explore and investigate the outdoors. We enjoyed interacting with our friends and it is so lovely to see the older children support the younger ones.
Look at all the ways we are developing our reading and writing skills .
Look at all our curious learners - independent and confident to explore all areas of learning.
The month of May celebrating Our Mother Mary is so special to Pre School because it is our saint, and she is Jesus’ Mother.
Physical development- cosmic yoga
Wow, how lovely to see you all interacting together. Exploring your outdoor classroom and developing your creative skills.
Look at us ALL enjoying the adventure playground - taking risks and challenging ourselves!
Wow we revisited “ The Creation “ story and added drapes, instruments and costumes thinking about how hard God worked to create our world 🌎 in Seven days .This is linked to our story this week “ Through the Night “;
Linked to our Social Catholic Teaching this week we have been thinking at “ Workers “ and a variety of jobs people do. The children were AMAZED that people work through the night whilst they sleep 😴
How exciting a real fire fighter came to visit, we were able to try on his uniform and learnt a lot about his actual job. The children were so well behaved and used their listening ears we were so impressed with how they answered the questions. What a knowledge bunch!
Our first visit to Forest 🌳 school with our new friends- I think you would agree they all look like they are having the best time 😊
The children had so much fun exploring the paint with their hands. They discussed the texture and colours they made as they mixed the paints together. One of them suggested painting the tree and fence, it looked great. We also practised our gross motor skills by balancing along the beams. Some of the children explored the musical instruments and marched around the garden singing at the top of their voices.The weather was so nice we even had our snack outside - what a treat.
It was so lovely to welcome some new friends to our pre school family they all fit in beautifully. They have all settled really well and enjoying all the activities pre school has to offer.
