This week in outdoor learning we have looked at Eric Carl and his amazing art work. We read his book, The Very Hungry Caterpillar. We then went on to design and make our own butterfly, looking at symmetry and even made our own Eric Carl art work. In the Garden we explored insects and bugs under a microscope.
In outdoor learning we have been learning about Bees and making some Bee art. The children decided this will help raise awareness of the importance of Bees. We even used hammers and nails to create our own flower bed looking at measurements and working as a team.

In outdoor learning this week, we have been looking at how people used to live in the medi evil times. We looked at mud villages and also tried on a knights helmet. We also made a knights favourite drink, made from honey and water, a delicious treat back in the day.
This week in outdoor learning we have looked at 1940s and 1950s. We looked at how homing pigeons were used and made our own secret messages in invisible ink. We also looked at how soldiers used fire to cook beans and bread. We also couldn’t resist roasting marshmallows.
Thank you to Brian Nicholson, who had kindly donated some fantastic gardening equipment to the school.
This week in outdoor learning we have looked at parts of the plant. We looked at how seeds grow and planted pumpkin seeds and watermelon seeds. We look forward to when they are fully grown to eat.
We have continued the theme of dinosaurs and have been working on different life skills and science based topics around dinosaurs. We found a T Rex skull buried in the garden and also discovered how birds are related to Dinosaurs.
