  • Sunday 21 April 2024 Honeybees Friday 19th April 2024 Welcome back! We hope everybody had a fun filled break. We have had a wonderful first week back in Honeybees Class with the children settling back into school life well.
  • Sunday 24 March 2024 Honeybees Friday 22nd March This week in Honeybee Class we have been focusing really closely on what it means to be a good friend. The children have spent lots of time in small groups, or with a pair improving their sharing skills, turn taking and playing cooperatively. The children enjoyed working together to collect and transport water to different areas outside, shared equipment to improve their fine motor skills, played ball games and board games and had great fun in Bucket sessions waiting their turn to splat flowers and hide under blankets. They have played beautifully together with a range of toys which has been just wonderful to watch. We are really proud of the kindness we are seeing as they start to help each other and work as a team, well done Honeybees!
  • Friday 15 March 2024 Honeybees Friday 15th March In Honeybees Class this week the children have continued their learning about plants with a new story called The Extraordinary Gardener by Sam Boughton. Using inspiration from the story they had lots of fun creating tall beanstalks and fantasy animal paintings. Their imaginations are fantastic!
  • Monday 11 March 2024 Honeybees 8th March 2024 What a busy week we have had in Honeybees class as we have set our minds to all things growing related. The children have continued their growing journey with the story Jaspers Beanstalk by Nick Butterworth. In the story Jasper finds a bean, he plants it, waters it and even tends to the slugs. He then waits for his beanstalk to grow and in the end he ends up with a brilliant tall beanstalk. The children really enjoyed learning from Jasper, they chose their very own beans, planted them and watered them. They made fantastic gardeners, we can not wait to see how their beanstalks grow. The children were so engrossed with this they then worked hard to fill and empty pots with water, compost and sand using a range of equipment in our outdoor area.
  • Saturday 2 March 2024 Honeybees 1st March 2024 We've had a busy week in Honeybees class this week focusing on the seasons and Spring in particular. We have learnt that trees start to blossom, new flowers bud and baby animals are born. The children looked at signs that Spring is on its way and created their own blossom trees, flowers and baby lambs.
