More Spanish day fun...

The children painted Spanish flags...
We were very lucky to have a parent helper visit our classroom to read a Spanish story to us about farm animals...
We went to the nursery to play the Spanish bull dance game...
The children loved the pinata game...and releasing the sweets from the box!
We got to taste Spanish food- olives, bread sticks, Spanish salami and biscuits with our sangria fruit juice.
The children had such a lovely time! They have been busy writing thank you letters to Mrs Waobikeze today!






Spanish Day on Thursday...

The children looked fantastic dressed in Spanish costumes and colours....

We went to the hall to learn some traditional Flamenco dancing. Take a look at some of the photos...

We have been making salad...

The children have really enjoyed growing lettuce in our garden. We picked it this week to add it to our healthy salads. The children enjoyed washing the salad and made choices from different salad ingrediants to design their own salad. I hope they enjoyed eating them at home!

Seasides!


Welcome back after half term ,I hope you had a lovely break!

This week we have introduced our new Seasides topic and the children are very excited about their trip to Southend next Tuesday!


We have been learning Spanish words for seaside objects. See if your child can say the beach (Playa), sand (Arena) and sea (Mar) in Spanish.

We have set up our own seaside cafe and ice cream stand...

We have been painting seaside pictures and labelling them...
