Year 1 have been learning about landscapes and the artist Monet. They looked at some of his paintings and talked about how he enjoyed painting the different seasons in the outdoors. The children then used colour and texture to paint a landscape in the style of Monet.

Thank you to Sarah from BookTrust who came to visit us today! Our parents, carers and children absolutely loved Story Time and we are very grateful for our free books!

The children in Nursery have enjoyed taking part in some Poppy crafts today as part of our learning on Remembrance Day. The children decorated their own biscuits and did some Poppy finger painting. #RemembranceDay
