This week, we have been enjoying discovering the resources in our classroom and making some new friends.

We painted self-portraits. We looked carefully in the mirror at our different skin, hair and eye colours and experimented with colour mixing. We are learning to select colours for a specific purpose and to make darker and lighter shades of a colour. We also tried to control our paintbrushes carefully so that we were able to fill in the shapes that we had drawn. We are now enjoying spotting similarities and differences between ourselves and our friends.
Sports Day took place in the penultimate week of the year. Inspite of the dry and hot conditions we managed very well to have some great races. Well done to everyone who took part including pre-schoolers and parents! Thank you to the junior school for letting us use their field, the Y6 children for their help and Miss Capetti for all her organisation.
This week is our Farm Theme Week. The children have been rotating around the classrooms in mixed groups taking part in different farm themed activities. When the children visited the Reception classrooms they drew farm landscapes and coloured them in using oil pastels. Here are some photos of the wonderful artwork the children created.
