Squirrel Class Updates :

Squirrels had a visit from a circus, we played lots of different games, became conductors for a while and tried on our very own clown noses! 🎪🎈

As part of our history topic Squirrels are learning about the first plane… we took a trip to Barton Airport to spot some planes and we even saw a helicopter 🚁. Squirrels enjoyed watching planes take off and land, they raced alongside the helicopter as it flew across the field. Squirrels had lots of fun 😄

As part of our History topic – Squirrels took a trip to Flixton House, we took a walk around the gardens and discussed what we could see, what we liked and had a look at the different paintings we spotted. Squirrels were also very inquisitive about the different information boards, the dates they could see and things they could learn! Squirrels also all enjoyed sitting on the wooden throne! 🤴

Happy Halloween Squirrels! 👻🎃 Squirrels enjoyed hollowing out oranges and filling them with jelly, we then drew some spooky faces on the front of them! We also had fun creating some scary skeleton pictures with lots of different materials

Squirrels took a trip to the garden centre, we had a checklist and we hunted around for different things. Squirrels searched high and low for things to tick off, worked well as a team and managed to complete it all (minus the barbecue!) 😄. Squirrels also found some things to dress up with and had a dance along to some Halloween decorations🎃

🐿️🎨 Our Squirrels have been getting creative in art! We went on a nature walk to find different natural objects to draw. From smelling fragrant lavender to spotting colorful leaves, the children chose a variety of treasures to inspire their artwork. What a lovely way to explore and create! 🍂🌿

Squirrels are loving PE this year! 🐿️
They’ve been playing lots of different games, working on teamwork, building confidence, and making new friendships in our class. Such a great start! 🙂
