TERM 5 - ' What's growing in your garden?'
This term we have been learning all about what is growing in our garden. We have looked at what a life cycle is and learned about how caterpillars change into butterflies, tadpoles turn into frogs and beans turn into plants. We have also loved being outside in the garden too!

TERM 3 - "Our Local Heroes!”
This term we are learning about our community and the different jobs people do to keep our community safe and happy! We have had some visitors and been on our first trip! We had a 3 different 'Local Heroes' come to visit us: a firefighter, a nurse and the police! They came and told us what they do in their day and how we can contact them if there is an emergency.
We also learned about how postmen help us. We wrote letters to post and made a map so we knew how to get to the post box. The children were excited to see how long it would take for their letters to get home!

This term we have learned 'All About Me', we have read stories focusing on our feelings, bodies and likes and dislikes. We have thought a lot about how special and unique God has made each of us. We have explored self portraits in lots of different ways, making portraits out of playdough, fruit collages and paint! We were inspired by different artists Picasso and Arcimboldo!
