Date: 22nd Apr 2020 @ 2:09pm
Hi Pre-School
We hope you’re all well and enjoying the lovely sunshine. We have got some more tasks for you to complete this week. We have started learning about the Circus.
Task 1- Literacy task
Can you make some signs for your roleplay Circus? You could use your mark making skills to write ‘jugglers this way’ or ‘elephants here’ - make sure you tell an adult what your signs say.
Task 2 – Maths task
Can you make entrance tickets for your circus? You can use your literacy skills by writing words or your maths skills by putting a price on the tickets. Maybe you could use coins as part of your roleplay to help with your counting and number recognition.

Task 3- Physical development
Can you balance or spin a plastic plate like a circus performer? You could use the plastic bottles that Miss McLaren asked you to keep to play a bowling game too. Use your maths skills to count how long you can balance the plate for or how many bottles you’re able to knock down.
Task 4 – Understanding the world
Could you watch the greatest showman with your family? This will give you an understanding of what a circus is and the different performers.
I would love to see some pictures or videos of you performing to the songs from the film.
Enjoy your week with your family. We can't wait to see all your tasks, please do send any pictures of your tasks to the schools website or facebook page.
See you soon,
Miss McNamee

Hi Pre-School,
Here are a few more tasks for you to do this week.
This month is National Pet Month, so we thought you might like to:

- Make a pet house using old boxes and decorate it to make it cosy for your pet.
-Create a pictogram for your families favourite pet.
We hope you are all taking care of yourselves and washing your hands for 20 seconds at a time.

Take care.

Squidge the Squirrel, by Mrs Walker
Date: 25th Apr 2019 @ 11:36am
Today F1 had a visitor, Mr Squidge the Squirrel! Mr Squidge was only a baby squirrel. The children enjoyed looking at him and he looked hungry so we fed him some nice healthy apple before phoning the rescue centre to pick Mr Squidge up.
We hope Mr Squidge had a lovely time playing in our playground and We hope he finds a nice new cosy home.

We were planting French bean seeds for our edible playground. The children thought they would grow as big as Jack and the Beanstalk.
