Thank you to all of our grown up who came to our celebration of learning yesterday! It was lovely to see so many of you and Crew MW loved showing off all of their beautiful work from their Autumn Term expedition. We are so proud of everything that they have achieved in such a short space of time!
Crew Dorman had our Celebration of Learning this morning!
It all started in September, with the Expedition – ‘Exploring our World’ our guiding question was ‘What do stories tell us about Autumn?’
All term we have been exploring our nursery indoors and out, reading stories and getting used to all of our play areas and daily routines.
In Case study 1 our focus story was ‘Owl babies’ and we learnt about our family and other families like ours.
In Case study 2 we looked at non fiction books on ‘Diwali’ and ‘Bonfire night’ and learnt the rhyme ‘5 Little firemen’ with actions!
Finally, in Case study 3 our focus story was ‘Percy the Park Keeper – After the Storm’. We used what we had found out about our environment and forests in our stories, to look closely at the animals and plants in Percy’s park. We were incredibly creative throughout all of our expedition. We made lots of artwork, building up our art skills and confidence, to be creative with lots of different materials inside and outside!
During our celebration of learning, we showcased our ownership of our learning environment, by showing our parents where we like to play. We showed off our crafting and printing skills making ‘Clay hedgehogs, ‘Leaf man’ pictures and Autumnal handprints! We also talked about our favourite stories R said to Mrs Dorman “I like the Leaf man story!” and N said “I like the Percy book!”
Thank you to everyone who has made our expedition so magical and a big thank you to everyone today for celebrating all of our wonderful learning! What a fantastic day! Well done Crew Dorman!
Why don’t you practice the rhyme ‘5 Little leaves’ at home or take a look at one of our favourite stories ‘Leaf Man’.
This afternoon, the children had the opportunity to share their expedition journey with their parents. They did an absolutely amazing job of speaking in front of an audience and proudly showed off the learning they have been doing. They should be beyond proud of themselves for the product they’ve produced.
We have a limited number of newspapers available for a donation if you would like a copy.
Thank you so much to all the grown ups that joined us for our Celebration of learning this afternoon. We really appreciate the support you’ve shown today.
KS1 have worked so hard on their Harvest Festival, sharing their learning with whole school! This was such a brave thing to do, so early on in the academic year, we were very proud of the children. Their confidence shone through. A big thank you to Miss McGlone to helping us with our music skills, we were excited to showcase these on the day.
Thank you to everyone that’s supported us with our Harvest Festival donations. We really appreciate your support 💕 Mandy, at Oops a Daisy has donated this amazing flower arrangement, it’s absolutely stunning and could be yours! We are raffling this off at £1 per number and it will be drawn at lunchtime tomorrow so it is able to be collected at home time.
We will be at the front of school in the morning for those that have asked to purchase a number. All funds raised will go towards purchasing a banner for a children to celebrate our attendance at extra curricular events such as Young Voices and sporting events. Thank you all for your continued support.
