A busy start back after the half term break. Week 1 saw us learning about how to care for our environment, reducing waste, reusing and recycling. We shared the stories of ‘Somebody swallowed Stanley’ and ‘The Messy Magpie’.  The children already have excellent knowledge about ways to help care for our environment, which is wonderful to see. 

We were very busy during free-flow times, exploring musical instruments, small world play with the farm and animals, we re-used a piece of cardboard packaging to make a road for the toy cars and we painted our clay creations from forest school. Our Bee Challenge for this week was to draw a picture of ourselves and write our name. Most of us can confidently write our name correctly now, which is an amazing achievement!

During Bee Explorers on Friday afternoon, we enjoyed playing with the small world castle, trains and tracks and we re-used more cardboard packaging to create fantastic houses plus many more exciting activities.
