What an amazing selection of Superheroes and Local Community Heroes we had today in Little Cypress!

This week Reception have been reading the story ‘Zog and the Flying Doctors’ by Julia Donaldson.

Last week in Nursery we read the story ‘Jasper’s Beanstalk.’ We arrived at Nursery one morning to find that an enormous beanstalk had appeared with some giant boots at the top, we discussed who we thought the boots could belong to and then read the story ‘Jack and the Beanstalk.’

Our current literacy learning is based around the works of Shakespeare with a focus on the Scottish play, ‘Macbeth’. 

Many of you would have noticed our new living willow tunnel. 

Year 2 have had a fantastic week of creating and performing nonsense poems. 

Many thanks to everyone who visited our Book Fair.  We made a whopping £2500 in sales, which has earned Cypress £1450 worth of rewards to spend at Scholastic on books for the new Upper School library. 

It felt almost tropical on Thursday and the weather was such a lovely break from the cold and rain we have been experiencing on and off in the last few months.
