We enjoyed a wonderful day out at Smithills Open Farm today! We got to feed cows, sheep and goats, sat with rabbits and chicks on our knees, saw owls, meerkat and pigs, and played on the park with our friends after enjoying our picnics! Both adults and children alike had the best day!
We talked about our feelings and emotions in this week’s PSHE lesson. After discussing how to react and help our friends with their emotions, we expressed some of our own using our faces!
To celebrate National Poetry Day today, we made some twinkly star wands which we magically waved whilst we recited the poem ‘Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star’ 🌟🫛🐛
We celebrated European Day of Languages a day early today! We listened to Spanish nursery rhymes and enjoyed French, German, Greek and Spanish foods. Wiggle even practised a bit of Greek dancing! 🫛🐛
This week’s PSHE lesson focussed on creating some ground rules for our future lessons. We came up with the rules as a whole class and each signed our name to agree to them.
We also said goodbye to our friend today as she graduated from Peapods, ready to move on to nursery in September! Wiggle wishes her the very best of luck on her new adventure! 🐛🫛🌈
The children (and adults!) all enjoyed taking part in the Peapods annual sports day today! They competed in races such as the egg and spoon race, the javelin and the bean bag toss! Wiggle then awarded everyone with a medal 🏅 🐛🫛
Year 2 had an amazing day at Knowsley Safari Park! We enjoyed an interesting lesson on eco-systems, the amazing sealion show, the fascinating birds of prey exhibition and finally, the safari trail around the park where a crash of rhinos tried to charge at our coach! We have seen lots of intersting animals including lions, giraffes, llamas, deer, donkeys, baboons, bufallo, meerkats and many, many more!
