We enjoyed our special Harvest assembly and listened to the story of ‘The Little Red Hen’. We loved tasting some delicious different types of bread later on that day …yummy! A big ‘Thank you’ for all the kind donations of food we received for the Coventry Food Bank too!

We had lots of fun exploring Autumn when we went on our Autumn walk around school. We looked at the changes in colour of the leaves on the trees. We found worm casts and fungi. We really enjoyed throwing the leaves up into the air and kicking them too!
The children enjoyed playing with Jelly Babies, pretending to play in the park or in the doll’s house. The Jelly Babies were ‘good friends’ as the children thought about sharing, taking turns, helping one another and being kind.
In assembly Mrs Gould read the story ‘Enemy Pie!’ Afterwards the children sorted pictures of pebbles with friendship and enemy words written on them. They had to decide whether the words went in the ‘Friendship pie’ or the ‘Enemy pie’. We considered words such as kind, caring, friendly, mean, sad and hurtful.
In Reception we have had lots of fun learning how to work as a team! The challenge was to try and pass a hoop around a circle without breaking hands. It was a bit tricky but we did it and it made us laugh.
In Reception this week we have been doing some ‘Marvellous Measuring’ and some ‘Fantastic Phonics’. Look at our Weekly Planner for further details. You can see this on ‘About Us’ under ‘Reception Weekly Planner’ on our website.
What a super week we have had doing lots of experiments finding out about sound. We learned about vibrations and sound waves.
We had a great time doing lots of sporty activities. On Thursday Mr Burgess helped us to complete an assault course during our P.E lesson. On Friday we dressed in sports wear and did lots of other fun and energetic activities.
We had lots of fun finding out about being loud and quiet. We played ‘Chinese Whispers’. It was very tricky to get the message right! We then went on the playground and shouted our messages to each other. We had to listen very carefully!
We had a fantastic time in Reception dressing up as our favourite story characters! We looked at some of our favourite books too!
