After listening to the story of 'Someone Swallowed Stanley' Olive Tree class used our problem solving skills to design, make and evaluate a kite from recyclable materials in D & T today. #STEM

Today Apple Tree Class were introduced to pulleys! Sending the bucket up and down has created lots of questions and ideas. Great investigating Apples. #EYFS #LOtC #DanesholmeNursery

EYFS had a great afternoon exploring signs of winter on the field. Waddling like penguins and throwing snowballs at Mrs Morris…and the only way to get warm…toasted marshmallows on the campfire! #EYFS #LOtC

Olive tree class enjoyed tasting the fruits from our class text Handa's Surprise. In our maths lesson we used our counting and analysing skills to vote for our favourite and record the results.

Year one enjoyed our linked learning in art and history today as we created our own Paul Cezanne fruit basket sketches with the fuits from our class text Handa’s surprise. @Artsmarkaward
