Well done to all the children who answered our special blog question last week! We are so proud of all the children who took part! 💎⭐️✨

As you are aware Remembrance Day is held on the 11th November each year. It is a time when we remember all those who have died since the First World War.

Our special blog challenge this week is linked to Remembrance Day. We would love you to make your very own poppy and bring it into school to share with your friends! 😀❤️ You can make your poppy in any way you wish and be as creative as you like! We already can’t wait to see them. 😀

Remember the winning team will win a trophy! 🏆 😀

Diamond Class had the most wonderful trip to Crewe to learn how to become amazing gymnasts!! 🙃

We learned how to move our bodies in lots of different ways! 😊 We moved like frogs, rabbits, crabs, crocodiles, caterpillars and even bears!! 🐻 We learned how to hold our bodies and how to point our toes beautifully too!

Many of us had never been on a bus before so this was a wonderful adventure! 🚌 We asked lots of questions about everything we spotted on the bus showing super curiosity. We learned about the importance of wearing our seatbelt too! ☺️

Diamond Class were AMAZING! Everyone showed amazing resilience and independence whilst taking part in all the activities and we all managed to put our own socks, shoes and jumpers back on ourselves before home time !! ⭐️✨💎 WOW WOW WOW!

We had the most wonderful time and already can’t wait to go back next week! 😊

Today Diamond Class learned all about Diwali- the Festival of Lights! ✨ We had a wonderful time and enjoyed learning about why Diwali is celebrated and how it is celebrated around the world. We learned that it is a time of joy and often includes lots of beautiful fireworks!

We started creating our own diyas (lanterns) out of clay! They are going to be so beautiful when they are finished. Make sure to check back later on in the week for the finished product! ☺️

We also had great fun creating our own Rangoli Patterns this afternoon too! 🕯😀💎✨

This week Diamond Class are learning all about colour! 😀

We are using the story ‘Elmer’ to learn all about colours! ☺️ We love this story!

We’ve had lots of fun sorting colours and mixing them together to make brand new colours! We learned that if we add white to a colour it makes it lighter and if we add black to a colour it makes it darker! 😀

Diamond Class are amazing! 💎😀
