Oak and Chestnut Class spent an afternoon with John- The Creepy Crawly Man! He brought in a hissing cockroach, a snail, a stick insect and a snake called Monty! Everyone had a great time handling the creatures and asking lots of great questions!
Oak Class have been really enjoying playing outdoors over the last few weeks. The cold and rain haven’t put us off! We have been playing in the mud kitchen making all sorts of different concoctions and even went on a bug hunt where we found Superworm!
Oak Class have been doing Gymnastics in PE this half term. We have been pretending that we are in the jungle and we have to think about how different animals would move around on the apparatus which we have been pretending are obstacles in the jungle!
Oak Class had a fantastic trip to Wildlife Oasis yesterday. We had the opportunity to handle some animals, make Christmas crackers for the meerkats, watch the arctic foxes and the Scottish wild cats being fed Christmas themed treats, had a lovely buffet and met Santa and then we finished the day off by exploring the indoor zoo and playing some of the animal themed games outside.
Oak Class had a great time doing the Elf Run today! Don’t forget to get your sponsors in for St John’s Hospice!
We all had a fab Christmas dinner today! We had lovely food, crackers and some awful jokes!
Oak Class have had a wonderful couple of weeks taking part in lots of different Christmas activities. We have written letters to Santa, been to the post box to post them, made cookies and ate them in the park, done our Elf Run, had a Christmas dinner, did lots of Christmas crafts and so much more. We even had a wonderful afternoon decorating cakes and biscuits thanks to one of our parents! Thank you so much for bringing in everything we needed! We had a fab time and they were delicious!
We had a great time in Oak Class this morning welcoming some of our parents into our classroom. We took part in lots of activities like decorating biscuits and cakes, going on a present hunt outside, wrapping presents for the elf, making wreaths, finger painting fairy lights and defrosting some snowmen in our water tray. It was lovely to see them all and play together!
Oak Class have had a wonderful first week back at school. We have been busy doing so many things. We have played in puddles, practised our fine motor skills, learnt about 2D shapes, done lots of Phonics activities including a word hunt, collected leaves for leaf hedgehogs and then made the hedgehogs during Forest School, learnt the Rama and Sita story and so many other things. We also talked about Mrs Laycock’s trip to Iceland, looked at some of her photos and even held some real lava! We’ve had a wonderful week!
