This is our Health Week.
We have been thinking about keeping ourselves safe. We explored things we put into our bodies, things we put on our bodies and safe computer use.

We had a visit from Karen, the Life Education lady, and she brought Harold too!
Today we enjoyed some Chinese food. The children had a good try with chopsticks but could eat more with spoons!
This week we have been thinking about rain and water. We looked at a painting called The Umbrellas and then we acted out the picture, then we thought what the people in the painting might be saying.

We have explored floating and sinking, dissolving foods in water, painting on wet paper and done a great experiment with Skittles!
This week we have explored ‘wind’. We had great fun with fish races, We have also enjoyed the story of Joshua at Jericho
