Violet Class / Nursery and Reception
Welcome to Violet Class.
Autumn Term 1 2024We are learning the whole school 'Rainbow Pledges' and finding out how they can help us to learn and manage our behaviour... We are striving to be the best we can be!
Amazing Me! Amazing You!
We are learning about ourselves and how we are all special and unique. We are listening to the story Stickman and talking about families.
We are learning about our bodies, what we use different parts of our bodies for and exploring different ways of moving/using them.
We are learning about what jobs people do and painted pictures. We thought hard about the colours we were choosing to represent uniforms that people wear. We listened to the story Clothesline Clues to Jobs People Do to support our learning and write about all the jobs we learnt about in the story.
We celebrated Harvest by learning about how the farmers in 'Our Community' work together to provide food for us. We shared our learning and art work (based on the story Oliver's Milkshake) in the church during our Harvest Festival Service.
Wonder
We are learning about Guy Fawkes and Bonfire Night. In PE we explored firework patterns, shapes and sounds using coloured material and ribbons.
We are learning all about the Hindu Festival of lights 'Diwali'. We made beautiful and colourful Rangoli Patterns. We have a home corner decorated with colourful lanterns and Diya lamps and listened to the story Rama and Sita.
We are learning about the Season Autumn. We used paints and leaves to make leaf shapes and wrote about the changes we see in the Autumn time.
We have been very busy practicing our Christmas Nativity. We performed several performances to the rest of the school, Pre-school and our families. Our favourite thing was dressing up in our costumes!
To celebrate the end of term we had a Christmas party, we wore our Christmas jumpers and enjoyed some delicious Christmas Lunch cooked by the chef and listened to Christmas songs.
