Hello Everyone!
We hope you all had enjoyable weekends? Did you manage to go on a daily walk? If you did, like us, you must have seen what the rain on Friday and Saturday has done to the plants, trees and flowers!
I saw that they all seemed to have grown taller and fatter and seemed even greener! I also noticed as I went up my garden to my compost heap more garden creatures out and about! I counted 10 snails on the top of the compost heap!
I wonder have you noticed any garden creatures in your gardens, on your balcony or on your daily walks? What have you seen?
Why are these small creatures so important to our world?
Miss Butler has found a funny story about a diary of a worm. Please go onto Foundation stage home learning base 1 and you will be able to click on the YouTube video and watch and listen to this story. Or google YouTube diary of a worm!
There are some fascinating facts about worms on the Natural History Museum website. Watch a short information video about worms (2 minutes), it is fascinating and will inspire you to try and encourage worms to the surface so you can really see them!

It was good to continue to phone many of you on Friday, those of you who were out I will try to phone again on Wednesday when I am next in school. Since these calls I have been delighted to see your photos of your home learning ~ thank you for taking the time to up load them. It seems that you have enjoyed using the white boards and pens please send me some photos of your whiteboard creations!
Thank you for sending your rainbow drawings!
Most of you will have seen the wonderful fund raising Captain Tom has been doing for NHS charities. What a hero! Miss Butler and I thought it would be a lovely gesture to send him some of the drawings you have been doing or could do for his 100th birthday! Keep drawing special pictures and please send them to us so we can send them to captain Tom! This is a lovely challenge I feel!!
As ever, have a good day and stay safe
Mrs Penn, Mrs Heap and Mrs Coleman
