This week the children in Antonia’s class have started their Arts Award Discover accreditation. They have been busy learning about and working on some Art linked to the artist Wassily Kandinsky. Some of the children have been colour mixing while others have been working hard on their cutting skills and making beautiful collages based on Kandinsky’s Concentric Circles. They are very excited to complete their first Arts Award and have so many exciting things coming up to add to it including a meet and interview with an artist!

The children have been working on their fine and gross motor skills this week in both Kangaroo Club and class. They have been practicing zips and fastenings and on the trampoline they have been learning some new moves and exercises.

This week we celebrated two special days! On Thursday we celebrated St Patrick’s Day by learning all about St Patrick and dressing in green. In the afternoon we all had a dance to some Irish music! Today we marked Red Nose Day by raising money for Comic Relief and dressing in fancy dress and red clothes.

The children have also been practicing their beautiful singing this week with Sing School on Wednesday with Fran and a whole School Singalong Assembly in the afternoon. It was so nice to all be together again singing lovely songs and having fun.

Well done to Grace and Holly who received medals in assembly today for their fabulous reading this week. Both girls have achieved their reading outcomes and are moving on to new sounds and words.

Please come back next week for photos of our coffee morning next Thursday.

Have a lovely weekend everyone!
