Botanic Gardens
We spent a great day at Leicester Botanic Gardens on an Elmer day, helping Elmer to find a lost teddy. We explored the rainforest, the desert and a bamboo forest. Later we hugged a Giant Redwood tree and had a picnic under the trees. #outdoor learning at it’s best.

Chatterpix
The children have drawn their favourite dinosaur and animated it using Chatterpix. They took a photo of their drawing uploaded it into the app, recorded their voice, placed their mouth animation, stood back and watched. They were so engrossed and had so much fun!

Baking Bread Rolls
Following on from our learning about the traditional story, The Little Red Hen, we have baked bread rolls. The children learnt about harvesting the wheat, grinding the grains in a windmill and then how to turn the resulting flour into bread. They had so much fun and our room smelt yummy, fresh bread rolls!
