Yet another week of wonderful sunshine! The children have been busy practising their races in preparation for Sports Day and have been supporting one another wonderfully. The children have been very responsible and taking turns to get to the poly tunnel to help water our plants and vegetables, they are very excited to observe that the flowers have started to appear and are looking forward to observing more changes over the next couple of weeks.
We revisited Austin’s butterfly this week, where we followed the process of ‘Austin’s Butterfly’. The children carefully sketched their own butterflies using clear lines and shapes and added shading for detail. We had some very beautiful sketches and could see excellent progression from the Spring term.
The children have enjoyed watching the chicks as they have started to grow their adult feathers and visiting the school coop during the day to enjoy the sunshine. They have been helping to look after them, giving them fresh water and food each day and helping to clean out their coop.
