Robins had a fabulous day at Mead Farm! We stroked bunnies, groomed ponies, went on a tractor ride, fed some hungry goats and sheep and had fun on the jumping pillows and in the sandpit! Huge thank you to our parent helpers!

Robins were sad to say goodbye to our butterflies but, it was magical to watch them fly off on their journey and let the lifecycle start again!

Robins have become poets. To end our caterpillar topic we have been exploring poetry, banking vocabulary and using this to create our own class caterpillar poem. We enjoyed performing our poem to our class adults!

Robins enjoyed making some healthy smoothies yesterday, we wrote our own recipes, learnt to chop fruit safely and had lots of fun using the blender! We then evaluated how we could make them better for next time!

Robins enjoyed opening a sports shop in the outside area. They made price labels, sold items and then used the items to create their own games, they created a score board and thought of different ways to challenge themselves by making their games harder.

Robins have been tasting fruits from the hungry caterpillar. We explored our senses and came up with lots of vocabulary to describe the fruit. We then created a tally chart and voted for our favourite one.

Robins enjoyed a football match in the mud. We then created some mud pies for the players at half time.

Robins have enjoyed learning about the meaning of Easter. Today we made an Easter garden to represent the meaning of Easter. The children enjoyed collecting items for the garden and working as a team to create the garden.
