Just before the half term break all the children in Red and Yellow class were given a special bag to take home and fill with ‘Autumn Treasures’. We are excited to see all the lovely things you find and bring in. We will be discussing the changing seasons from autumn into winter.

This half term we will be exploring ‘Light and Dark’. For Diwali the children watched a show using shadow puppets to tell the story Rama and Sita. The children will now be creating their own stories using shadows. We will be watching some fireworks, creating light and dark pictures and telling stories in the dark. Our core-story this half term is ‘A Dark, Dark Tale’ by Ruth Brown. This story builds suspense and anticipation about a journey in the dark. This will also be our book for Sharing Stories which you will be invited to in November. On 16th November you will also be invited to join your child for a very exciting workshop about nocturnal animals. Can you guess what animals they might bring?
