Reception – Chick Watch

30th March 2022Gemma Newton

Our chicks arrived in Yellow and Orange Class on Monday. We were really excited for their arrival. We all predicted which chick would hatch first.

Unfortunately nothing happened through the day (despite lots of wobbling noticed by children on “chick watch” ) On Tuesday morning we had some newly hatched chicks waiting in the incubator.

We learned how to distinguish between boys and girls and then after 24 hours we were able to move the chicks into the brooder box. The chicks need some time after being born to dry out and gain strength.

Our chicks are now all hatched and we have moved them into the brooder box. This week we are going to learn how to look after them and hold them safely.

 

Daffodils for Hope

5th February 2021R Dixon

In school we are all drawing daffodils as a symbol of hope and light, coming out of the winter and moving into the spring.  I am sure you can also appreciate we are all hoping that life can get better for us all soon, and all our children can be back in school.  Why not ask your child to draw a daffodil at home, you could email it to [email protected] and we will try and upload it to our school Facebook page.  You could even display these in your windows at home to cheer up people who walk past.

Below is a link to a website that can help you with this:
