We have been learning to paint in the style of David Hockney in KS1. Each child was given a small section of one of Hockney’s paintings and had to mix the appropriate colours for their picture. I’m sure you will agree that we have some super artists in KS1!

FSU spent an afternoon hunting for quadrilaterals in our outdoor spaces, as part of our learning ‘all about four’. We found squares, rectangles, trapeziums, even spotting a rhombus amongst the willow structures! We noticed and counted four sides and vertices.

The children had a fantastic afternoon gardening this week. They worked brilliantly as a team.

We have been busy making soup today. The children washed, peeled and chopped the vegetables. When it was finished, we all sat down to try our warm, tasty soup.

Today we tasted a variety of vegetables in preparation for making our own vegetable soup. The children were absolute stars and tasted everything! Carrots, parsnips, turnip, onion, broccoli, corn, potato…

FSU children visited the Woodmansey Memorial this week to find out more about poppies and Remembrance Day. The children also enjoyed observing autumn trees and hedgerows, as well as looking at and talking about St Peter’s Church.
