Health and Safety week

Hello everyone,

I hope you had a lovely sunny weekend. 

Last week we had our den week. The weather was rather wet so we didn't make tents and dens outside. Instead we made dens in soft play. We listened to the story of Kipper's Monster and also acted out the story in the hall. Isla bought in a tent she had made out of paper. The children really liked Isla idea so we made our own tents out of paper and put them on the wall. On Friday afternoon we went outside and played bat and ball which the children choose to do.  
We also listened to the story of Alfie and Annie rose camping trip. 
We have been doing lots of singing this week and sang a new song called 'what shall we do with the letter.. Can you think of words beginning with.. The children have enjoyed learning this and thinking of words beginning with that particular letter. We have also been playing the game of what comes next after number.. The children have become really good at this. 

This week we are going the school with their Health and Safety topic. During this week we will be playing lots of different games e.g. football, hockey, running etc and observing the effects of activity on our bodies. We are also having our sponsored bike/scooter rides this week. We will be talking about safety at the seaside, crossing the road etc. We will be going to watch Sports Day at the main school on Monday morning. 
We are going to be making some cakes and decorating them for our BBQ on Tuesday afternoon after school.
