Y Tywydd Parachute Games

We have been developing our vocabulary about the ‘weather’ in our Welsh language sessions. We have enjoyed learning lots of new songs and following instructions playing parachute games.

Our AMAZING World!

In RVE, we created a photo gallery showing things that we found interesting and beautiful. We zoomed in on some of the items so that we can see them in more detail.

Forest School

We have been back outside completing some Forest School sessions. This time it was about following the lead of the learners and seeing what they remembered from last time. Everyone remembered the Forest School rules, and the rules around using tools (a knife this time) were also remembered and demonstrated. Den building was a big hit, they used the pegs created by the knives to hold down the tarpaulin and looked at how to tie some different knots.

What is special about our world?

In RVE we discussed the meaning of the word ‘create’ and we became ‘creators’. We created artwork using natural resources that we felt was wonderful. We talked about our creations and how being outside makes us feel.

Arlo “I feel happy and calm”

Alba “Nature is my happy place”

Corey “I like being outdoors looking at butterflies”

Bluebell “Nature makes me feel free”

Lola “I like taking care of things and helping them to grow”

Elin “Being outside makes me feel peaceful with the birds singing and tweeting”

Forest School

The children worked really hard today in their forest school session; they worked as a team to collect everything that they needed to build our fire and they enjoyed a ‘healthy’ treat to round off the afternoon. Da iawn pawb!

Forest School

In today’s session we thought very carefully about ‘cynefin’ and our sense of belonging and some of the children decided to create a range of bug hotels for our local wildlife to seek sanctuary.

World Book Day

We have had an amazing World Book Day!! We went on a Gruffalo trail hunt to find different characters that were hiding in the Quad. Then we went on a book walk on the field and role-played the story of the Gruffalo. At snack time, we had a lovely book picnic on the yard with some of the older children reading stories to us.
