BROADWAY ARTS FESTIVAL

This week as part of the Broadway Arts festival we were lucky enough to have a visit  from John Kirk the Story teller - he was amazing …...the children had such a lovely time. He performed 'The Gingerbread Man' and 'The Three Little Pigs' and everyone took part. 

One day we enjoyed a walk to the local shop to buy fruit and then we all helped to make a fruit salad the following day. The children all cut up a variety of fruit and showed good control and it was delicious !


At Broadway Playschool the younger children have really enjoyed playing outside all together and spending time playing in the water.We are all enjoying having the visiting student back and the warm weather has allowed us to have snack time outside with the two year olds. They have also enjoyed the play dough this week. 
At Towerview much fun has been had with the castle and figures, this week, self selecting the equipment and lots of imaginative play seen and extended language heard.

At Forest school this week we explored the bugs and some of the children made a bug hotel with a swimming pool. The building at the back of the forest school area is complete and we are now able to hear and see the birds.

WE HAVE BEEN ASKED NOT TO USE THE SCHOOL CAR PARK AS IT IS FOR SCHOOL STAFF ONLY - thankyou for your cooperation.

PRACTISING FOR WIMBLEDON

Some of the children have enjoyed the 'marble run' this week, working together to problem solve. There has been some lovely interaction and it is fabulous to see the delight on their faces when the ball has gone all the way from the top to the bottom.  

Outside the children have really enjoyed using the bats and balls to develop and show off their tennis skills.

Along with the children, Sarah also learnt something this week when she attempted
(with help from Jo & Tarah) to make peppermint (& vanilla) 'caterpillars' sweets !
The children really enjoyed following the instructions to make them too!


They also made their own playdough, following the recipe and had fun playing with it all week.
