We had a lovely last week, Welly Time with Mrs Bedwell, picnic and a party!
What a wonderful year in Reception! The boys have made everyone proud and they are now ready to spread their wings to Year 1. We wish them the best of luck.
Have a fantastic summer and look forward to seeing you all in September.

The week was started off with a fabulous Sports day! Well done for all your efforts, Boys!
The focus for the coin mosaic this year was ‘Mr Walker’. As a class we discussed the different things Mr Walker likes doing, we decided to make a large pencil as Mr Walker loves Art!

This week we have been doubling numbers. Play this game in pairs. Give each pair 10 objects (could be cubes, cars, etc), a mirror and a set of 1–5 digit cards. One person selects a digit card. Ask the other to place that number of objects in front of the mirror. How many objects can they see now? Swap around and repeat the activity.
A fantastic start to the week with Reception’s concert! Well done, boys!
On Tuesday we had an exciting trip to the RAF Museum. We helped Teddy the Royal Air Force bear to find his missing medal. The boys were amazed by all the different planes and helicopters.
We then had a brilliant end of the week with International day! Thank you to the parents who came in and taught us about the different countries: Sri Lanka, France and Russia. We had great fun!

Play in pairs. Each group starts with 20 counters — count these out together to start. In turns, children can take away 1, 2 or 3 counters. The loser is the person who takes the last counter. Support children by asking questions to prompt counting back or other subtraction strategies at each stage of the game.
This week we followed instructions to make paper planes. It was good fun testing them out!
Thank you to Clancy’s Mummy for making fruit kebabs with us, we had a fantastic time and enjoyed learning facts about different fruits…. Including, a cantaloupe melon is called a rock melon in Australia.
We loved spending time with the little chicks.
