Welcome back to the Summer Term! We have already had a busy week with the Year 1 trip and Zoolab visit to Early Years.  Next week we are welcoming the Berkhamsted Butterfly Project to talk to the children about the importance of planting wild flowers to help attract butterflies to our local area, a talk from the RNLI around water safety and Reception WoW day. 

Tiggywinkles Trip

Year 1 had a brilliant trip learning about the animals that live in their local area. They were very excited seeing a polecat, baby squirrels (kittens) and fox.  The children had lots of thoughtful and interesting questions which we hope they are keen to share with you.  Thank you to all the volunteers who came on the trip, the staff who organised it and the VSA for helping fund the trip. 

Zoolab

We continue with the theme of animals in Early Years who had a visit from Zoolab. Many of the children showed great resilience when handling some of the more exotic animals that they had never touched before. It was very interesting to find out that what ever colour food snails eat that will be the colour of their poo!

EYFS Outdoor Area
Our Nursery children were very excited when they arrived on Tuesday to play on their new outdoor area.  With the new decking, they have a much bigger area to explore and more space to pedal their ride on toys. We are putting plans together for what to do with the bottom ramp area for Reception so watch this space.  Thank you to The Lawton Trust and VSA for funding this project and to Charlotte Love for designing and building the new area.
