Cold Geography
The Year 1 pupils have thoroughly enjoyed exploring cold places around the world for the past two weeks. They have learnt about the North and South Pole and the animals that live there.

Starry Night
Foundation Stage 2 pupils have been little artists this week. Our topic was night/dark and using Van Gogh's famous painting, The Starry Night, they were asked to recreate this using paint and their fingers. This was very successful, and the results were amazing.

Faith Diary
Today’s Gospel describes the beginning of Jesus’ public ministry. When he hears that John has been arrested, he immediately heads to Caparnaum to take up John’s message and begin His own mission. Seeing Simon (Peter) and Andrew fishing in their boat, he tells them to follow him and he will make them ‘fishers of men’. Astonishingly, they immediately drop what they are doing and leave their boats, nets and past lives behind to follow him and his teaching for the rest of their lives. Jesus makes that same call to ‘follow him’ to each one of every day, at every Mass. Unlike Simon and Andrew though, we are not usually called to leave our homes and work behind to do so - all we have to do is allow him and his teachings to enter our lives and hearts, and do our best to take them to all those we meet in our normal, everyday lives.

Arctic Tuff Tray
Nursery 2 pupils have been learning all about winter by exploring an arctic tuff tray. The tuff tray was full of different materials for the pupils to explore as well as sea creatures and animals.

Patterns
Another fantastic tuff tray for our Nursery 2 pupils to learn all about patterns. The children used bright coloured bottle tops to make their own patterns. This activity is also a great way to learn colours, whilst developing fine motor and communication skills.

Sensory Fun
This week our Nursery 2 pupils have had great fun exploring a light sensory room in their classroom. Sensory lights provide stunning effects and help to create stimulating environments for all needs. This form of play helps children to focus on specific sensory elements in their environment. It is also lots and lots of fun!
