We have definitely made the most of the warmer weather this month with lots of days outside. We’ve enjoyed picnics, park visits, walks down the canal, Avebury gardens and Stanton Park to feed the ducklings. Our ballet class with Miss Kate also started again which we all love.At home we have been enjoying our newContinue reading “June”

What fun we have had this month following a science and space theme. The children were so excited to make their own DIY lava lamps using coloured water, oil and vitamin C tablets- they made the most amazing red bubbles with some even spilling over the top of the jars! Using the same vitamin tabletsContinue reading “May”

Despite the fact it was very green due to a high volumeContinue reading “Winter Warmer”

The great weather in November has enabled us to explore lots of our favourite outdoor spaces. Look at the fun we’ve been having, and skills that we’ve been learning. We loved reading the book Odd Dog Out whilst out on our walk.

Following on from all of our Halloween fun our attention turned to Bonfire night. We enjoyed creating bonfire & firework paintings, rockets and even made sparklers which we were able to eat in the afternoon.
