Chinese New Year

This week we will be learning about Chinese New Year, and the customs and celebrations that happen at this time. Every year is named after an animal, and 2010 is the year of the tiger. You can find out about how the years were named here.

Our daffodils have grown!

We planted bulbs back in October, and now with some tender loving care, we have these beautiful daffodils! We were given all the bulbs, pots and soil by Marie Curie to participate in their 'Little Pots of Care' fundraising event.
All the children have now taken home their daffodils and an envelope to collect donations for Marie Curie Cancer Care.

A song to help us learn

This week, we have been learning about vowel sounds, and have been writing and playing games to learn about the sounds ai and ay.
We have been learning the names of some capital letters, and love this song about capital I.
