Hooray for Easter

In Reception we have been learning about the Easter Story. We decorated crosses and eggs and hung them on the Willow Tree. We learnt about the Last Supper and had our own little Eucharist service drinking Ribena and eating Hovis white bread. We have made our Easter cards and decorated bunny baskets.
 
 
 
 
 
In PE we have been learning skills in rugby. We have been learning how to pass, run with the ball, weave in and out and had a mini game of touch rugby.
 


 
 
 
 
 
 
To finish off the topic Dragon Tales we held a horse riding tournament to find out who was the fastest knight riding on their trustee steed! The knights had to jump over benches and penalties were incurred if they hit the bench or fell over. Everyone took turns in judging penalties and reading the stopwatch for time. There were three male knights and one female knight who won the tournament with a record breaking time of 12 seconds and no penalties incurred. Da iawn Dosbarth Derbyn.
 
 
 
 
Happy Easter. Have a lovely break.

Fun times in Nursery

                 We went on a trip to Cardiff castle. We learnt lots about castles and had a fun time.






We looked at lots of different types of patterns and made our own patterns inside and outside of the classroom. 


We learnt about the jobs people did inside a castle. We dressed up as Kings, Queens, knights, Ladies in Waiting and servants. Then acted out being those people. 



We designed and made our own castles out of junk materials. 




                                           We learnt about the Easter story and acted it out.
