This week we have been embracing the heatwave which fits perfectly with our current theme ‘Going on Holiday’. We have spent lots of time outdoors (with sun protection of course), enjoying fun activities and finding ways to keep cool.

⭐ Star of the Week – All of you! ⭐

We have been wowed by your progress at snack times: you have been choosing to sit at the table together, shown good waiting skills for your turn, and used food symbols to communicate your choices. Well done Bumblebees, we are so proud of you 😊

Hello everyone and welcome back for our last term of the year. Our little Bees have settled back into the hive very well and had a fun packed first few days, both indoors and out. We have been celebrating the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee with lots of lovely activities, take a look at some of the fun we have been having…

We ended the week with a whole school picnic on the big playground, everybody came even the Queen! We celebrated winning ‘joint First place with Dragonflies’ for our cake decorating 🎉 Well done everyone, what a fun start to the term 😍🐝

Hello everyone, we have had a very busy two weeks in Bumblebees 😊🐝. We have been ’back to basics’ concentrating on communication skills (well done, everyone 😊). We have reintroduced our Attention Autism (or ’Bucket’ sessions) and the Bumblebees are reacting fantastically well!

We have been celebrating Eid this week, making decorations and sprinkling hundreds and thousands onto iced biscuits.

We also have a new topic song ’The Train Ride’, which all of our children love. We have started to make a display about the story, and we also had fun moving to the music in P.E.

Have a great weekend

Hello everyone

Our Bumblebees have been very busy this last week, as we approached the Easter holiday. We have used paint and collage to make Easter pictures and cards. We had a very exciting Easter egg hunt in our classroom and then had a wonder time eating them. We also made some Easter crowns/bonnets as well as explored our lovely Easter sensory tuff tray.

The Bumblebees have all worked hard this term and we are so proud of them. We hope you have a good break and lots of good weather.

This week we are showcasing the activities we did for the recent Hindu festival of Holi. This is a very joyful festival as people celebrate the coming of Spring and its colours. Our Bumblebees made some iced biscuits with hundreds and thousands, produced some lovely rainbow pictures, danced under the parachute, and some of them had their faces painted. We also held a celebration assembly with our satellite friends on Friday. What a fantastic week!

See you soon,

Hello everyone

The Bumblebees have enjoyed the better weather this week, being outside more and having a go on the bikes.

We have continued our life skills and problem solving with spreading jam on bread, and also by making some fruit rockets by covering bananas with chocolate spread. Yum 😊

There are quite a few festivals and celebrations coming up, and this week we explored all things green for St. Patrick’s Day, making a collage of a shamrock, as well as listening to some traditional Irish music.

Hello everyone

We have been looking at and making lots of stars this week. We made potato print star patterns, which was fun. We made cheesy bread stars, which were very tasty. Then we used our whole bodies in P.E. to make star shapes, listening and moving to music called ’Birth of a Star’.

What a starry week!

See you soon,

Hello everyone

Welcome back after half term. We hope you had a great week with your children, although the stormy weather probably meant staying indoors more than ususal ☔️🌪

This week we have celebrated World Book Week, our theme being ’Animal Antics’. This meant we were able to re-visit our favourite book and song, ’The Animal Boogie’. We enjoyed watching and joining in all of the different moves featured. We made some animal pictures using finger paints and dabbers, which we have included for you below.

We have focussed on reading and looking at books, including the whole school Book of the Week, ‘Dear Zoo’, and we captured some lovely moments of our children looking at books, and of course, iPads which require reading skills too.

On Thursday we celebrated by dressing up as animals, or fancy dress. I am sure you will agree all of our bumblebees looked absolutely fantastic, as did our lovely ladies in Bumblebees class.

Have a great weekend!

Our Bees (adults & children) have really enjoyed celebrating Number day on Friday!

It has been so lovely seeing our bees dressed up in differ Numbers and Shapes, celebrating all the different areas of Maths.

Throughout the day we have enjoyed moving to counting songs during PE and exploring numbers & shapes during our Child-led and iPad sessions.

Below are some of our favourite counting songs for you to share at home.

We hope you enjoy these songs, at home, as much as we do in school.

Have a lovely weekend.

Hello Bumblebees 🐝

It has been very nice to welcome back staff and children who have been affected by covid. We have had a wonderful week together enjoying our topic song – Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star 🌟

We have uploaded our version below for you to enjoy at home with your little ones.

Enjoy singing and signing the song! 😊

We’ve also enjoyed making Moon Rocks and glittery Stars. As you would have found out, by all the glitter, our Bees have really enjoyed these activities.

Enjoy the rest of the week!
