Friendship Week in Reception

Today we celebrated Friendship Week. We discussed what it means to be a kind friend and what to do when someone is feeling sad. The children thoroughly enjoyed taking their Teddy Friend to the Forest and took turns sharing and playing alongside their friends .

Sea legs theatre’s puppet show

What a treat! We were all very lucky today to have Rob Ashman come visit us from the Sea leg Theatre with the show little Bo peep. He started the show of nicely with some nursery rhymes and began to make Bo peep a cake for her 4th birthday. Of course along the way he came across some cheeky characters like the mouse trying to steal away the ingredients.

Ask your children if they can remember parts of the show and the other puppets name’s, it was very funny. Thank you Rob for joining us today hope to see you again soon.

Please see the link below for a trailer of the show.

Remembrance Day

Reception learnt about why people wear poppies at this time of year. We marked the day with a two minute silence at 11am and made our very own poppies.
We also watched a special animation to try and learn about Remembrance. It shows the Great War experienced by animal inhabitants of the WW1 battlefield. You may like to watch this again at home:

Here are the poppies we created today…

Diwali

The children have been learning some more about Diwali which was celebrated on Thursday 4th November. We worked together to listen to an information book all about Diwali and we learnt about the ways they celebrate. As part of our music session we listened to some traditional music and performed dances and actions throughout. We noticed that the tempo of music changed and understand that tempo means how fast or slow the music is. We have also been taking part in some arts and crafts activities linked to the festivals.
