2025-2026

Butterflies Class have been learning about and supporting Children in Need. We explored Pudsey playdough, created masks using bingo dabbers to add spots to Pudsey's bandana and even made some yummy Pudsey biscuits.

We had some time to reflect whilst we were learning about Remembrance Day. We learned about poppies and what they represent, before making our own poppies in a variety of ways.

Look at our pretty firework and bonfire art! We have been learning all about Guy Fawkes and bonfire night; our favourite was making edible sparklers using breadsticks, icing and sprinkles.

During 'Autumn Week' we have been making yummy pumpkin rice crispy cakes, as well as exploring pumpkins and seasonal vegetables through sensory play.

In our local area, we have lots of people who help us. We thought about the fire brigade and explored shaving foam fires, putting them out with spray bottles, as well as creating edible bonfires using peppers!

Today we have had a lovely time visiting Towneley Garden Centre, as part of our exploration of the local community.

Butterflies have had the best time visiting Space Centre today! We enjoyed exploring the different soft play areas, especially the colour changing ball pool and giant slide.

This week's superstar has been cleaning up independently whenever he has spotted a mess or spillage in class!

Happy 6th Birthday! We hope you enjoyed celebrating with your friends.

When we were out on a community walk, we spotted lots of bakeries making yummy treats locally. Back in class, we had a go at making our own delicious iced cupcake before eating it too!

Happy 5th Birthday! We had so much fun celebrating in school for our classmates birthday.

It was a lovely crisp day at Towneley Park when we collected some autumn leaves for our artwork. We enjoyed some toast for snack in the garden centre café afterwards to warm up.

Today we have been learning about Jeans for Genes day. We created a jeans collage, used bingo dabbers to develop our fine motor skills whilst filling in the gaps on the jeans and even ordered the jeans on the washing line. What a busy day!

After reading the Three Little Pigs, we decorated our own pig biscuits, thinking about the characters in the story.

We have been creating houses and planting grass seeds to grow our own gardens!

This little superstar has shown fantastic perseverance, not giving up until he was able to independently use the scissors. Well done!

To learn more about the area around us, we have taken part in a scavenger hunt in the woodlands area. We had to find the symbols related to each of the classes in school.

Ready, Steady, Go!

This little superstar has been verbally requesting actions by saying 'ready, steady, go!'

Cause and effect is a big part of our learning; this week we have used items that we might find at home. It was lots of fun exploring the different equipment.

As part of our topic 'On Our Doorstep', we have started thinking about different places that are local to us. This week we have been using a range of media to create our homes.

Welcome back, Butterflies Class! This week we have been interacting with our friends and taking part in lots of fun activities while we get to know each other.
