This week Mrs Smith tasked us with creating decorations for the church for our upcoming Easter service. Reception used their art skills to paint an egg, aren’t they fabulous? We hope you can spot them in the church! 
Reception, used the trim trail to practice a range of gymnastics jumps, including tuck jumps, pencil jumps and star jumps. The children started their jumps correctly and landed safely, bending their knees and maintaining balance. Great job Reception 
This morning reception have concluded our learning of The Easter Story by creating our own Easter Gardens. We thought carefully about the symbols of Jesus’ death and ensured included them in our gardens. A big well done reception 
Reception have been observing their bean plants over the past few weeks. Today, they decided it was time to show off their ‘green fingers’ by planting the beans into the soil.
The children noticed that the shoots and roots had grown long, which meant the plants needed more space to continue to grow healthy.
In RE this week, reception have been continuing our learning of The Easter Story, we considered why hot cross buns are a symbol of Easter. The children recapped the story, then tasted hot cross buns and discussed the cross symbol and what it means for Christians.
Reception thoroughly enjoyed their trip to the library yesterday, look at the new books we brought back to school!
Reception explored printing using a variety of fruit and vegetables. We rolled and pressed the items onto paper to create patterns and textures. As we experimented, we observed different shapes including curves, circles, dots and lines.
Reception, took part in a creative art activity inspired by spring.
During the session we listened to music by the famous composer Vivaldi.
While listening to the music, we created spring pictures using a variety of art media and techniques.
Reception enjoyed an afternoon in West Park, kicking off our new topic Signs of Spring and trying to find some signs of Spring of our own!
Reception had a wonderful morning celebrating World Book Day! Our costumes were fantastic and the children loved engaging with The Extraordinary Gardener book, whilst also become gardeners themselves!
