Pirate Party

FS 1 (Foundation 1) on: Foundation Stage 1's Blog

Ahoy there me hearties and welcome to our pirate party! We made blistering buns and scurvy sandwiches in preparation for our party. On the party day, we went on a pirate treasure hunt searching for gold coins before settling down for a pirate feast!


Whole and parts

FS 1 (Foundation 1) on: Foundation Stage 1's Blog

In Maths this week, we have been learning all about whole and parts. We now know that it is a whole if it’s all there and it is not a whole when some is missing. We also learnt that a whole can be cut in to parts, with some parts being small, some parts being big and other parts being the same size. 

What better way to consolidate our learning than with toast! We had a WHOLE slice of toast which we then cut in to PARTS. Once we had taken a bite-we knew that it would never be whole again and must be gobbled up!


Floating and Sinking

FS 1 (Foundation 1) on: Foundation Stage 1's Blog

This week we have been finding out if things float or sink. We carried out a science experiment and made predictions. Then some F1’s carried out their own investigation in choosing time! 


Outdoor Friday

FS 1 (Foundation 1) on: Foundation Stage 1's Blog

Well, Outdoor Friday became a wet Friday today! But, we still managed to have lots of fun with sticks. We made hedgehogs using clay and sticks, a leaf kebab and turned a stick in to whatever we wanted!


Welcome to F1

FS 1 (Foundation 1) on: Foundation Stage 1's Blog

As part of our Come and See topic, we’ve been learning about all the different ways to welcome someone! We can: high-5, hug, smile, say hello, say welcome, fist bump and wave hello. If you ever visit our class, you’re sure to receive a warm welcome :)

Outdoor Friday

FS 1 (Foundation 1) on: Foundation Stage 1's Blog

Outdoor Friday this week celebrated all things leafy :) We headed off on the big school field and went on a leafy treasure hunt. We found lots of different leaves; some were green, some were yellow, some were brown and some were even purple!


Foundation Stage Car Wash

FS 1 (Foundation 1) on: Foundation Stage 1's Blog

Our learning this week is all about cars, so we just had to have a car wash! We had lots of fun washing the bikes.


Outdoor Friday

FS 1 (Foundation 1) on: Foundation Stage 1's Blog

We looked at flowers for today’s Outdoor Friday. We created flowers using different materials. We also had lots of fun too :)


When a bee came to visit F1

FS 1 (Foundation 1) on: Foundation Stage 1's Blog

We’ve been learning about bees this week...so how lucky were we when a big buzzy bumblebee came to visit F1? We got a very close look at the bee collecting pollen when we put him outside! We love bees in F1!


World Book Day 2019

FS 1 (Foundation 1) on: Foundation Stage 1's Blog

The children all looked fabulous today! We saw everyone from Matilda to Mary Poppins to Superworm to a dragon! We participated in lots of book related activities today. We especially liked ‘stop and drop’- this is where we stopped whatever it was that we were doing, dropped on the carpet, choose a book and read it with our friends.
