We have been doing some amazing writing in class this week and not only using single sounds but some children are even writing words using the digraphs and trigraphs we have learnt. Fantastic job!
This week we have had so much fun exploring our new environment. We have made dinner in 'Tiny Town' and looked at books in 'Story Kingdom' We learnt the names of the areas in the classroom and were excited to hear about Dojos - our reward system for collecting points. We met Croc and played sound sound talk games and have joined in with maths rhymes and singing using our class rhyme bag. Mrs Yardley popped by to say hello and read us a story. The dinner hall was very exciting, we met the dinner ladies and enjoyed eating and talking with our friends. At lunchtime we played in Wonderland on the big field! We look forward to Monday when all the children will be in together.
This week in Drawing Club, the children explored the classic tale of The Gingerbread Man , discovering new vocabulary like tiny , toss , bank (edge of a river), and proud while creating incredible drawings and practising their letter formation. Inspired by the story, they designed their own gingerbread biscuits, which we all enjoyed eating together while watching a performance of The BBC Philharmonic: The Musical Story of the Gingerbread Man , narrated by Nihal Arthanayake, blending music and storytelling into a magical retelling of the tale.
This week, EYFS brought the fun and excitement of the Isle of Wight Festival to our setting with our very own mini festival! The children had a fantastic time designing their own T-shirts and colourful wristbands, which they wore proudly throughout the day. We made musical instruments using recycled materials and had the chance to perform on our stage — complete with singing, dancing, and lots of smiles! Our little festival-goers dressed up in fabulous outfits, made festival headbands, and even built their own tents using poles, sticks, and pegs. It was a magical day filled with music, creativity, and imagination.
