Week Commencing 13th January:
This week we have been exploring Winter art in Reception and Nursery.
Nursery made painting using frozen water with paint inside. At first the paint came out a little watery but as the ice melted the paint became stronger. The finished result looked amazing and very colourful!
Reception made process Winter art. We discussed what Winter looks like and the children came up with blue, white, grey, snow and ice. We started by painting our paper using different blues, whites and greys. Once the paint had dried we used glue, salt, glitter and sequins to decorate. The end result looked just like Winter!
On Friday we celebrated our art work with an art gallery in the hall which showed off all the Winter art from across school. It was lovely to see how the art and techniques progressed.

Week Commencing 6th January:
Welcome back everyone! We hope you all had a lovely break and have managed to keep as warm as possible during these very icy and cold days.
It’s been very quiet in school this week as the snow and ice have made the paths and road very slippy and dangerous! However it’s been lovely to see those children who managed to get in safely.
Our new topic this half term is People Who Help Us and we started this week by talking about how our families help us. The children said that their Mums, Dads, Nannies and siblings all helped them at home by cooking them food, giving them bath time, taking them to the park and buying them toys!
We decided it was too cold and dangerous to play outside but we brought some of the snow and ice inside to explore! We used paint, brushes, hammers and syringes to break, crush and paint the snow. It was lots of fun but very cold! 🥶
The children also enjoyed playing in the new vets role play area. They took turns dressing up as vets, putting bandages on the animals and giving them injections.
Have a lovely weekend and fingers crossed we will see you all back on Monday with warmer temperatures!
