It’s been another busy week in the Bumblebee class.
Our Bees have enjoyed developing their gross motor skills during PE. Building on their balance, focus and positive participation. They have enjoyed climbing the apparatus, walking along the benches, and also swaying to action songs.
We have also enjoyed developing our taste buds during cooking. Trying new foods, mixing ingredients together and, of course, eating the final product.
We hope you all have a lovely weekend.

This week our star is a young lady who has positively participated with all activities this week, and overcome her own personal barriers.
Ladies and gentlemen… our star of the week is……
Well done young lady! 👍
This week we have been enjoying exploring our topic song – Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star. The Bumblebees have enjoyed looking at our ‘twinkle’ lights, tasting star sweets and looking at our star books.
We have also enjoyed our music sessions, focused around ‘The World’ 🌎 The Bees enjoyed looking and playing with the inflatable ‘Earth’ and listening to the land & sea sounds.
In cooking, we enjoyed practicing our ‘mixing’ skills by combining water and flour together. We were able to pour in the flour & water and then use a wooden spoon to mix. Some of us really enjoyed getting our hands stuck in too 😊
We hope you are all well and have a lovely weekend.

Welcome back to our Bumblebees. It has been so nice seeing all our children back this week.
They have settled back in nicely and adapted to our wonderful new furniture and resources.
This half term our topic is based around Earth, Space, Day & Night. To build on our Bumblebees’ interests our focus is our favourite Nursey Rhyme Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star.
Please feel free to watch these at home with your little ones – they certainly enjoy listening to them with their friends.
A Few Reminders –
On Wednesday’s our Bumblebees will begin swimming again – please provide a swimming costume/shorts, swimming nappy, towel and floats or swimming jackets if needed.
Happy New Year and we look forward to supporting you and watching our Bees flourish this Year.

Our star of the week was nominated because he has joined in every activity this week, taken part within our ‘good morning’ session and did ‘good waiting’ for his turn when Santa visited!
Well done young man…
It has been a very busy week in the Bumblebees class, filled with lots of Christmas fun! 🎄🎅
Below are some pictures from our Christmas party. Our bees enjoyed looking at, and playing with the parachute, exploring our Christmas light box and popping the bubbles. They also had a go at our sensory buffet, filled with all our favourite foods and textures.
This is the day our little ones had a special visit from Santa. Their eye contact and smiles speak volumes. Not everyone was a fan, but everyone came to have a look 🥰 Well done Bees 🐝
All the Bumblebees have had a blast. It has been so lovely to see their smiles throughout the week! 😊
We wanted to share something extra special to our extended Bumblebee family, you at home. The team have put together a special video sharing some memorable moments over the last few weeks.
Merry Christmas everyone and a Happy New Year! Enjoy x
See you all in 2022. Please stay safe!
Our superstar of the week goes to one of our young boys, for good sharing and working alongside his peers positively. Well done! 👏 👏 👏
This week we have been getting in to the Christmas spirit and our Bees have been taking part in a variety of Christmas themed activities (which you will see during our special Christmas video that the Bumblebees are putting together for you to enjoy next week. It will be shared on the blog) 🌟
On Friday we celebrated Christmas Jumper day and all sat and enjoyed our lunch with our personalised decorated placemats and hats, some even tried the Christmas dinner – well done Bumblebees! 👏 👏 👏

Next week we are continuing with our festivities starting with our class Christmas party/disco on Wednesday 15th December 2021. Children can come in to school on this day in their party/festive wear. We also are having a special visitor coming to see us (socially distanced, of course) on Thursday 16th December. He may even have some special surprises for our little ones! 🎅 🎁
Thank you very much for your continued support.
Have a lovely weekend.

Happy Friday Bumblebees. Our little bees have been developing their independence this week through choice making and topic work.
Our bees have also engaged within sensory, drama & role play sessions, making some lovely choices and maintaining their focus.
We hope you have a lovely weekend.

Good Morning Bumblebees…
Due to the adverse weather and ensuring our children and staff remain safe, school is closed today (29th November 2021) which means we get to do lots of lovely work from the safety of our homes.
Below is the schedule we follow on a Monday supported by some suggested activities for you to try if you wish to do so….
Can you make Gruffalo footsteps out of snow and maybe even try and build your own Gruffalo?
We hope you have a lovely day together and stay safe!
