This week, we have been learning the story Little Red Riding Hood as part of our Traditional Tales topic. Today we looked at Red’s wicker basket and the weaved pattern that had been used to make the basket. Mrs Farmer showed us how to weave and then we had a go ourselves!
This week, we are learning about the season summer! Yesterday, we learnt about what we might notice outside during the summer months and compared this to what we have learnt through the school year regarding the seasons. Then we made the most of this beautiful sunshine and went outside for a signs of summer hunt!
It’s Arts Week and we’re learning about Italy! Yesterday, we learnt lots about Italy as a country and then focused in on the beautiful city of Venice. The children were intrigued by the “City of Canals” and showed a particular interest in the Bridge of Sighs.
The art skill we were focusing on was painting using watercolours. The children were asked to paint a picture of Venice using the watercolour paint. Here’s what they produced…
The attention to detail is wonderful! Well done team!
Hedgehog Class have been challenged to make triangles this morning using smaller shapes. It took a lot of thinking about but I think you’ll agree they all did an awesome job! Good work team!
Earlier this week, the reception children went outside for a “signs of spring” hunt. They had a wonderful time searching the school grounds for the items on their list and there was some lovely vocabulary development too!
Welcome back to the final term of the school year! We’ve got a very busy term ahead which is very exciting!

Today was our last PE lesson on “Ball Games” for this academic year. Today’s focus was football skills and goal scoring. The children worked very hard in this lesson and we were delighted with the progress they made! Better still, every single one of them scored a goal for Team Hedgehogs!
Today we continued to our exploration of the Easter story to answer the big question ‘Why do Christians put a cross in an Easter garden?’ We created our own Easter gardens, talking about the representation of each part and how this helps Christians to remember what happened at the very first Easter.
We were very proud of our gardens when we had finished.
