Today your child had their school photography taken. They each brought home a slip with a scanning code. Scan the code and see the photos and order online. “Say Cheese” 📸

Next Tuesday is our first Tag Rugby session. Please can the children come into school in their PE kits and wearing trainers. Long hair MUST be tied up and earrings either removed or taped over (removed if possible as that’s always the safest way). Thank you 🏉

Learning in the garden. We learnt about the ‘Garden Rules’ shared with you in the PowerPoint last week and followed them really well. Here are some pictures of us writing, using the music wall and using the small world area. #CassInfMusic #CassInfEnglish

As we haven’t been able to talk to you as we usually would to let you know how your child has been settling we’ve devised a short settling in sheet which we’ve completed for each child so you can see how they’re doing. These will be sent home tomorrow. @RabbitCassInf @OwlCassInf

Today’s activities included learning how to play dominoes, Maths bingo and sorting objects based on our own criteria. #CassInfMaths #CassInfScience

Photos were taken today but the iPad is at school 😔 I’m so sorry. Today we selected numerals & built towers with the corresponding number of bricks. We thought about what’s special about us & each other & how we are the same & how we are different. #CassInfMaths #CassInfPSHE

Today we learnt about the school’s Golden Rules and about our Learning Power, Bee. Can the children tell you some of our rules and what Bee means?

Settling in nicely. Creating shapes on the Numicon boards and ordering pictures of people by height. #CassInfMaths

It was wonderful meeting you all this morning and so great to be back at school, settling in to a new year. Looking forward to seeing you all again on Monday.

We would like to thank you for our beautiful cards and generous gifts that we have received. We have missed seeing some of you but want to wish you all a relaxing summer break 🌈 We wish you the best of luck in Year 1! Keep safe & have fun ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Our last session in the Forest School this morning despite the grey clouds we are enjoying being outdoors 🌲🌲🌲

Today’s learning grid was to draw a bee. We have created some amazing bees! 🐝 #CassinfArt

Maths meeting question today: Children have the same colour eyes as their parents. Always, sometimes or never?

The final Reception pack of the term has been uploaded to the website. Link below. There will be an additional one coming out for the summer holiday later next week. Happy Learning https://twitter.com/rabbitcassinf/status/1281556992918802434 …

This is our view from the field this morning but can you guess the location? What activities would you be doing here? Do you know the name of this club? #CassInfGeography

This morning we have created some amazing art work using materials found outdoors. The children have collected materials that are rough, smooth, different colours and shapes. #BigOutdoorArtChallenge #CassInfArt

Look what we saw on our walk to the running track. A camouflaged caterpillar on the footpath. We were lucky to spot it! We were amazed that caterpillars had tails & that this one’s tail was bright blue. Have you seen a caterpillar before? Are all their tails blue? #CassInfScience

Today’s Home Learning Grid activity was designing and creating a name for a newly discovered planet. Here are a few of ours. What did you name yours! #CassInfArt #CassInfScience

Macaws created some scary long legged creatures with eight legs! How did you get on with your mask? #CassInfHomeLearning

Here is another local spot but do you know this location? What might they sell? Can you make a list? #CassInfGeography

Good morning Woodpeckers! Our location has taken us outside the school gates today but can you guess the location? Where is this from your house? Can you draw a map from your house to this location? #CassInfGeography

Today’s Home Learning Friday activity- exploring melting ice. ‘Which tool is best at ‘freeing’ the natural objects caught in the ice?’ #CassInfScience

If you’re in school today please remember to bring a coat 🌧 @OwlCassInf @RabbitCassInf

Today we did one of the Home Learning Grid activities and did observational drawings of exotic plants. Here are some of our drawings of a bromeliad. #CassInfArt

Next Week’s (Pack 7) Home Learning Pack has been uploaded. Sorry for the delay. As the newsletter said there had been problems with our website but it’s all there now. Happy Learning. @OwlCassInf @RabbitCassInf

Good morning Woodpeckers! The weather is beautiful at the moment. Why don't you go on a nature scavenger hunt? You could use this one or make up one of your own. Let us know how you get on. Happy Friday 🌈

Can you create a local map using sticks and leaves that you can find in your garden? (Alternatively you can use toy bricks or things you can find in your room.) Think about where your house is and what you might find in the local area. #CassInfGeography https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BiTfdZsAAqM&feature=youtu.be …

Making (paper) aeroplanes to help us escape from the jungle. This was an activity on the Home Lesrning Grid. How did yours turn out? #CassInfDT

Yesterday was World Music Day #CassInfMusic today we listened to different styles of music- disco, blues, gospel, African, Latin American & opera. We discussed what we liked about them. What’s your favourite style of music? Why? Do you have a favourite song/piece in that style?

Fitting in very nicely with our current topic, today happens to be World Rainforest Day 🌱 🌳 What has been the most interesting fact you have discovered or most enjoyable activity you have done related to the Rainforest?
