Bitterns Activities

The Bitterns were all smiles planting sunflower seeds, creating bug hotels, climbing trees, discovering new minibeasts, making dens and hunting for elderflower trees, nettles, brambles in their exploration of our new learning environment for the Summer Term!  What a magical way to end the week – thank you Mrs Truman-Grieve!

The Bitterns made pinch pots and learned to score and slip to attach extra bits.

The Bitterns have been learning about how Christians view God, and unpacking the hidden meanings of the parable, The Lost Son.  They designed and made cube boxes with the storyline on the outside, and placed the hidden messages inside.

When learning about VE Day, the Bitterns were sincerely grateful to our war heroes.  As part of our celebrations, they decided to write some rather moving letters to war veterans.

The Bitterns have been recognising and choosing coins to make up varying amounts to buy toys in the online toy shop!

The BItterns had an inspiring DT visit from The Norwich Puppet Theatre today and participated in a super workshop where they created the most incredibly created puppets.  The afternoon was spent with the puppets interacting with each other in the form of puppet shows in the Nest.  What a fantastic day!

The Bitterns have set up a weather station and are using a range of meteorological instruments to observe and record weather patterns in answer to our geography question:  What is the weather like in the UK?

An exciting week for the Bitterns, as we got to sand and prime our Gogo giraffe and work in collaboration with our artist, Josie Smyth.
