Starfish Class - ‘Stars in the making!’
17th May 2013
Step Into Quality
We are pleased to announce that Starfish Class, Reception unit, have been awarded from Lancashire County Council the ‘Step Into Quality Award’. This is in recognition of the Quality Early Years provision that is provided in our setting. This is a big achievement as only 53 maintained setting have received this award in Lancashire. Please see the notice board for a copy of the award.
Our learning
In literacy we have been performing and writing rhymes.
In maths we have been looking at 3D / solid shapes.
We have continued our theme of all creatures great and small, we have moved like animals, matched animals to their babies, made collage animals and have drawn the life cycle of a butterfly.
Shelter
The shelter area is an outdoor classroom for Starfish class. In the last few weeks we have noticed children playing with the resources in this area before and after school. Please do not use the equipment in this area as it is set up for learning and we do not want anything to go missing or get broken. Thank you.
Caterpillars
The caterpillars have now changed into butterflies and we have set them free. See photos on our website of the changes we have seen.
