Half term:

Autumn 1

Let's Pretend

 

The children will be exploring the different people who help us and we will have a very special guest from the hospital coming in to see us and talk about her role as an A&E nurse. We will be focussing on a range of different professions and will be going on a school trip to both the crucible and 'Tiny Town' for the children to explore. We will also be discussing our families and the different festivals that we celebrate, including a focus on Diwali where we will be designing and making our own Diva Lamps to go home with the children on our last week of half term.

Super Duper You by Sophy Henn

I've known you since you started.

In fact, I've seen a few . . . sometimes we are loud, sometimes we are quiet, sometimes bold and clanky, sometimes soft and cuddly.
