1GS had a fantastic morning learning about different toys from the past and present! Thank you to our parent helpers and @leicestermuseum #NewarkeHouses for a fantastic and informative session! @Humboinfants

1GS loved learning about all of the other STEM projects across all of the year groups. Thank you for sharing such amazing outcomes and explaining your understanding so clearly #STEMweek

So incredibly proud of 1GS for solving the problem to how we can protect hedgehogs through hibernation during winter🦔 @HIAMrRichards @HIAMissNewman #STEMWeek

For STEM week year 1 have been thinking about how animals protect themselves in different seasons. Today we met a rescued hedgehog and found out about hibernation🦔 thank you to all of our families for your food donations to help the rescue centre😊 @HIAMrRichards @HIAMissNewman

1GS were amazing tour guides for F2MS today. They clearly articulated the changes they had made, shared their maps of what and how they changed the quad and encouraged the children to look after their new area by watering it. #pbl @HIAMissSylla @HIAMissNewman @HIAMrRichards

This afternoon 1CN did a fantastic job taking F2 on a tour of the quad to show them all of the improvements they have made. 🌿 @Humboinfants @HIAMrsSmith @HIAMrRichards

This half term Year 1 have worked on using their geographical skills to improve the quad. Today the children worked as a team to dig, plant flowers 🌿and create bug hotels 🪲🐞. We can't wait to reveal the improvements we have made. @HIAMrsSmith @HIAMrRichards @Humboinfants

@missbsmithh @HIAMrRichards @HIAMissNewman this would be great to map out LRRH journey?!

We made a town today and then took pictures from above to introduce our new building topic and start to think about maps 🏘

The children have shown super teamwork and resilience today to help improve our outdoor quad area, based on their own designs 💪💭. We will reveal their finished handiwork soon! We'd also like to thank @LoveYourGarden for their kind plant donations 💙 @HIAMrsSmith @HIAMissNewman

Year 1 have worked very hard today, battling all weather conditions to do their planting and making their bug hotel. They're so proud of their improvements to the quad @HIAMrRichards @HIAMissNewman

Year 1 have been working very hard to find their number bonds to 10 this week! @HIAMrRichards @HIAMissNewman

We even got to visit Little Red Riding Hood's Granny's house. We collected new language to describe and have been working hard to follow our talk guidelines by showing proof of listening when sharing descriptive sentences. @HIAMrRichards @HIAMissNewman
