We have also been learning about pushing and pulling for our Science topic, Forces.

We have enjoyed lots of outdoor play in the sunshine exploring building blocks and taking turns and we’ve done some painting too.

we finished the week with bring a special person for the fathers day afternoon enjoying planting and art activities and a little picnic.

Welcome back after the half‑term break. This week we’ve been making the most of the lovely weather by taking our music and literacy learning outdoors. The children have enjoyed reading books outside, exploring sounds, and engaging with stories in a relaxed, open‑air environment.

We’ve also been practising our cutting skills, building confidence with scissors and developing fine‑motor control. In literacy, the children worked hard to sequence this week’s story, putting the events in order and showing great focus and understanding.

Gold Class have been building their independence this week with a fantastic visit to The Hub, run by the local West Lancs High School. During the visit, the children explored the menus, made their own choices, and practised ordering at the counter. It was a brilliant real‑life experience that supported communication, confidence and everyday life skills.

Back in class, we have started our new topic all about the ocean. The children have been talking about sea creatures and exploring seaside textures while creating their own sand pictures. They showed great creativity and enjoyed the sensory element of the activity.

This week in Gold Class, we have been sailing around the world, stopping in Australia, and enjoying lots of maths and literacy fun in beach themed tuff trays.

We have been designing flags in preparation for Sports Day, as well as learning about forces in science through pushing and pulling tyres in the playground.

We enjoyed a visit to the wild garden, where we had fun with while practicing nursery rhymes.

During this week’s attention autism we had fun being splashed by the fish jumping in and out of the water.

I soft play , we explored shapes and matched colours, while in light room we talked about emotions by pulling happy and sad faces. While pointing to a choose board.

To Finnish the week, we enjoyed water play, making the most of the beautiful sunshine we’ve been treated to.

It has been a fun-filed week with lot of learning, exploration, and smiles!

Wow, what a week we've had!

This week, we travelled to Antarctica through our learning. The children had lots of fun building their own igloos in the soft play area and with building blocks, making them big and tall while exploring mathematical language such as tall, short, wide and thin.

We also painted our own igloos using building blocks to print different-sized squares, helping the children recognise shapes, count the number of squares and explore patterns.

The children have enjoyed a variety of maths and literacy activities, both indoors and outdoors, developing their confidence through fun, hands-on learning experiences.

We also had a fantastic science activity where Angela demonstrated the concept of floating and sinking.

The children were then encouraged to explore the classroom and playground to find different objects to test in water. They made predictions and used words or gestures to show whether they thought each item would sink or float before discovering the results. The children were curious, engaged and loved investigating!

What a wonderful week of exploring, creating and learning together. Well done, everyone!
