Hello everyone....

Hello  Everyone,


This week we have had a great time and taken part in lots of fun activities. On Tuesday we played a sensory shape sorting game. Which was very tempting as it was shapes hiding in cereal. 

On Wednesday we studied our faces in the mirror and then did some great portraits from what we had seen.

On Thursday we went on a listening sound walk around the grounds of the school, some children did this in the garden area. The best sound was the tubes crashing on the metal fence. This was to listen and identify environmental sounds around us.

On Friday we made some puppet people which was lots of fun as they listened to a little conversation.


This week we will be focussing continuing on ‘Ourselves and also celebrating the Muslim festival Eid. We have lots of interesting activities planned for the week.

Hello everyone...

What's on in May 2018 - The Rowley Estates

Hello  Everyone,


This week we have had lots of fun learning experiences. The children really enjoyed baking their Flapjacks and did lots of predicting during this activity. The Bear masks were lots of fun and most of the group said that they were going to be a friendly Bear when wearing them.

We did some great number work with the compare bears and had to collect the correct number of bears for the corresponding number cards.

Outside this week the children have been doing lots of digging and looking for insects. 


This week we will be focussing on ourselves and we have lots of fun activities planned for this. Paining, crafting and group working together tasks.
