Week beginning 29th April 2024
This week, Early Years had a visit from Fire Fighters! Fire Fighter Matt talked to us about how they help people and keep us safe. We listened to the fire alarm and recognised them from our homes and classrooms. We had a look at the uniform they wear, while Fire Fighter Dean showed us how quickly he can put the heavy boots and clothes on in an emergency! It was very impressive! Then, we went outside to see the fire engine and were lucky enough to have a turn of using the hose, pretending to put out a big fire. Finally, we followed instructions of an exercise routine, as Fire Fighters need to stay fit. We loved the visit and learned a lot about how Fire Fighters help us.
Thank you to those parents who joined us for our Reading Café – we love inviting you into school to join in activities with us!
Week beginning 22nd April 2024
We had a very busy day celebrating St George’s day! We have learned all about the history of St George. We have made shields and swords to fight off dragons, decorated flags and role-played being St George. We also enjoyed an ice cream treat! What a super day!
Chef James came to bake with us again - we made pizzas! We expertly rolled the dough and added the toppings - tomato and cheese (some added ham too). We waited patiently for them to cook in the oven and enjoyed eating them once they were cooled. Delicious!
Week beginning 15th April
Our new topic in Early Years this half term is People Who Help Us.
Our role play areas have been transformed into a Doctors/Veterinary Surgery and Fire Station. We have bandaged each other, given medicine to the poorly babies and pets, brushed the dinosaur’s teeth and put out ‘fires’.
Our book is The Tiger Who Came To Tea. We have followed instructions to bake our own bread buns and make our own sandwiches for a picnic tea – thankfully the tiger didn’t come to eat it!
