Bluebell, Buttercup and Daffodil Blog 21st November 2025

Happy Friday Everybody!

The children were very excited to have their first Forest School session this week, despite the cold, windy weather. They all enjoyed exploring the area, den building and drinking the hot chocolate that we made to keep them warm! 

There is no Forest School next week because I am teaching in class. Forest School will be taking place once a fortnight for each class (when I am not teaching in class) and will continue throughout the year. Please see the newsletter for some lovely photographs of the children enjoying their sessions this week.

Our next sessions will be Wednesday 26th November for Daffodil Class and Tuesday 16th December for Bluebell and Buttercup Class (There is no session on 2nd December because we are all at the pantomime). 

Going forward, the children can come into school in their Forest School clothes with their waterproofs or a change of clothes in their bags, just in case they get wet or muddy, otherwise they can stay in them. Thank you so much for your support. We hadn't anicipated that so many children would come to school with waterproof trousers or suits and didn't want them to sit in wet, muddy clothes for the rest of the day but lots of children came to Forest School wrapped up warmly for the cold weather and in full waterproofs.It really is greatly appreciated and allows the children to be warm and comfortable when taking part in the sessions. 

Don't forget, if you need a Christmas gift idea, a camping mug will be put to very good use at Forest School. We will be having hot chocolate drinks and haomemade soups to keep us warm during the colder months! The is not an essential item (we have some cups!) It's just a gift idea for those that want it.

Spellings

New spelling sheets are in the children's bags along with this week's Animaphonics books. 

Thank you so much for all of your support at home. Your efforts really do help your child's confidence and fluency in Maths and Reading.

We hope you all have a lovely weekend!
