WEDDING CELEBRATIONS & HAPPY WHIT HALF TERM HOLIDAYS!



This week, to mark the Royal Wedding of Harry and Meghan, the children have enjoyed making  Royal crowns and checking out how they look in the mirror as a prince or princess!!  They have also enjoyed preparing & tasting food for the 'street party' , so that even those not in on Thursday had prepared and tasted the party food. They enjoyed sharing  hot dogs and jelly & ice cream, yum yum!!

The children have loved watching the peas seeds and mung beans grow that they planted the week before, in a 'green house' made out of egg box, complete with compost and clear food bags They have been noting the changes occurring over the past week.

On Wednesday at Broadway Playschool with the 2-3year olds we enjoyed a lovely walk across the fields this week.  We saw the brook and small water falls and had to avoid the sheep poo but there were a few miss haps! We had our snack as a picnic and had sometime in the park on the swings and slide. We also took some photos which we hope to share in the setting.


A wet Friday Forest School was made warmer with a fire and use of  the Kelly Kettle, to boil water to make custard and finish off the 'wedding' sponge cake.  The children are loving playing '123 where are you?'  and finding snails in the dense vegetation.

FEELS LIKE SUMMER !

REMEMBER YOUR CHILD'S SUNSCREEN & NAMED SUN HAT ! 

On Monday we all made did pizza with sausages and cheese just like the one  'The Hungry Caterpillar ate.  Everyone enjoyed sorting and sifting and mixing  the ingredients for the base and each child loved taking their slice of pizza home. 

Tuesday was a good day for the children, as we had lots of smiling happy faces during our time over at 'Big School', in the hall.  The children enjoyed playing musical statues and 'sleeping lions' and all did really, really well.

All children have been thoroughly enjoyed 'The Florist' in the role play area this week.  They have made wedding bouquets ( ready for harry and Meghan!) , decorated the book shelves with flowers and even learnt how to wrap the flowers in paper. 

I have been to a 'Gifford's Circus' performance over at Sudeley castle - I can thoroughly recommend it - for all ages !
