Y4 have had a fantastic first day at Folly Farm. We have been up into the woodland, exploring the habitat on the hunt for mini-beasts. The children used reference materials to identify their finds, sharing key facts with the rest of the group. The weather was glorious, so we sat on the hillside to enjoy our lunch.
Next stop was the Folly Farm pond, home to a myriad of creatures. The children had great fun pond dipping, finding all sorts of animals and again, using reference materials to identify them. They even found baby great crested newts and adult palmate newts!
The day isn't over yet and this evening we are off badger watching. Hopefully, we can all be very quiet and the badgers decide to come out to play!
Our butterflies hatched!
Transformation of our Early Years' Outdoor Area.
Today we celebrated pupils who have demonstrated our Abberley values, pupils who have been awarded a headteachers award, pupils who have reached their reading target and pupils who have been selected by the lunchtime staff for being amazing 'happy lunchtime ambassadors.' Well done everyone.
Y6 have had a brilliant week of environment mornings where they have been working hard to make our school look fantastic. This week, the children have painted our fences and hand rails, swept and cleaned our ramp and playground area, weeded the school grounds, topped our flower beds with bark and pruned our tree into 'Yoda'. They showed great collaboration, resilience, determination and have learnt a great deal of new gardening skills. They ended the week with hot chocolate and their brand new leavers hoodies!
