Big Writing - 12.11.15

Welcome to Pandas Class!

A warm welcome to Year 1 and Pandas Class. The children have made a fantastic start to the new year and have settled into their new routines brilliantly. Pandas have chosen their topic for this half-term. We're going to call it 'Scales and Tales'! We're very excited about finding out about all sorts of scaly animals and writing some scaly tales of our own.

We'll add some more information and photographs on to the page to keep you updated throughout the half-term.

Great job Pandas!

Around the World in Two Days!

Wow Pandas have had the busiest start to the week. We chose Europe as our continent to explore and off we went making flags, learning to count in Italian and finding different leaves for European trees in our Forest School session.

We're still busy working on our Paul Klee inspired city-scapes but these will be on display in the hall next week. Here are a few photos from the leaf hunting we enjoyed in the forest.
