Happy halloween !

With all the autumn leaves around some children have been using them to make shapes and the first letters of their names on the floor outside. The 3D tree has also been decorated for autumn
The pumpkin drawings and collages have been great, with some cool bat drawings being attempted.
We have been concentrating on scissor skills - so cutting around their art work has provided a new challenge.
At forest school we have talked about the seasons and have been learning the fire pit rules - always walk around - step over and sit at base camp - only adults in the fire pit area. Using the kelly kettle to start a fire to heat water has given some  their first real experience of fire at forest school - they were very good.

We closed now for half term and are back on Monday November the 5th for bonfire cake and bonfire paintings ( and lots of fire safety discussions!)  - see you then !
