Ladybirds leaned about Vincent Van Gogh and explored sketching and painting a version of The Starry Night as well as experimenting with different background colours and discussing how this changes the mood of the piece.

Active Ants had an amazing time with the RSPB. We used different instruments to help find and look at a variety of mini beasts, flowers and trees. We also used binoculars to look at the different birds flying around.

[Somercotes Infant & Nursery @SomercotesInf]

We were very fortunate to have a visit from the RSPB today who taught us all about different types of birds, trees, flowers and mini beasts. We were taught how to catch creatures properly, how to identify them and how to release them back into their habitat. #learningisfun
