This week Reception have been reading the story ‘Bog Baby’ by the author Jeanne Willis.

In reception this week we have been learning about Chinese New year.

What a fun filled day Reception had on Monday! We were fortunate enough to have a special visit from Professor Bubble Works who helped us make slime!

Since their return to school after the break, Year 2 have immersed themselves in a Design Technology project based around biscuits. 

This term we will be learning all about toys. We were very lucky and had a special visitor in school today showing us lots of old and new toys.

It has been lovely having all the children back in nursery, refreshed and ready t o learn after the Christmas break!

A few weeks ago, we set all children a photo challenge to read a book in most unusual or funny place they could think of. 

This week all of the children at Whitehorse Infants proudly sang their hearts out in their Christmas Concerts.

Christmas is fast approaching and Reception have been getting into the Christmas spirit by taking part in lots of exciting crafty activities.

Over the last two weeks in nursery we have continued with our colour theme.

Last week on ‘No Pens Day’, Year 1 were busy making their own moon buggies in DT.
