We started the year off with a mini topic 'We all shine bright'. We learnt all about each other and recognised how everybody is unique and special. 

Our topic for the rest of the Autumn term is 'Fantastic Forestry Friends'. We will be using exciting story books to drive our topic and help the children to learn all about forest creatures and changes to trees during the different seasons. We will locate some of the forests that can be found in the UK on a map, learning all about the 4 countries and their capital cities. We will also be creating beautiful art work that we can't wait to show you.

On Thursday 14th November, we will be visiting Bodenham Arboretum for the day. We will be leaving school at 9am and will be back in time for the end of the day. We are going to have lots of fun building dens, toasting bread on a real campfire, playing in the mud kitchens and much more. 

Please make sure to dress children appropriately for the weather and to make sure they have lots of layers of clothes to keep them warm as we will be outside all day.
