Please remember to apply a ‘once a day’ suncream to your child before they come into Froglets & to send them in with a named sun hat. On these beautiful sunny days we love to explore the garden & we need to make sure all children are protected from the sun. Please do not send in suncream with your child but apply it in the mornings as part of your daily routine – thank you.

Today we celebrated Science Week with an experiment about TIME. Our whole school question today is: ‘What can we do in a minute?’ In Froglets, we asked the question – ‘How high can we build a tower in a minute?’ We found a 1-minute countdown on the board and raced our friends to build the highest tower… the biggest one the Froglets built was 14 bricks high – then Mrs Knight had a go and managed 26 bricks! I wonder how high your tower at home would be? We love SCIENCE!

We LOVED seeing your amazing costumes today – we have seen farmers and gruffalos, superheroes, fairytale characters and princesses, policemen, ladybirds and so much more!

Every child will come with a token for £1 off a book – if your child did not come to Frogs today please ask an adult for one next week! Happy World Book Day everyone 🙂

In Froglets this term we are thinking about sound. When we asked the question, ‘What makes a sound?’ to start with we could only think of animals – then we listened very carefully… & heard so much more!

Today at Froglets we celebrated us. We all shared why we had chosen what to wear to school – some people chose their favourite colour to wear, others chose their favourite character and some opted for something super comfy! We agree all Froglets are MARVELLOUSLY WONDERFUL!

This term we have been busy learning all about different animals. We have focussed on the story, ‘Oh Dear!’ where Buster tries to find the eggs on the farm by looking for them in all of the animals’ houses. Check it out on YouTube (link below) as I am sure lots of the Froglets can retell it to you independently!

We hope you like our display board. Start in the top left corner and follow the red arrows around the board to retell the story…

Our learning has included sorting animals into 2 groups… those who live on a farm and those who live in the zoo…

… and we created our own story map to retell the story using pictures.

We used counters to decide if more people liked cows or pigs and talked about why we liked these animals.

We have loved learning all about animals and playing with lots of different farm-inspired activities!

A BIG welcome back to all our current families – Happy New Year and welcome to 2024! We are all very excited to welcome lots of new families who are joining our Froglet family – Keep an eye on our blog page for lots of exciting news about everything we get up to at Froglets 🙂

We have been having so much Christmas fun in Froglets… with Christmas tree decorating, dressing up as angels and Santa, making hats and wreaths, snowmen building, and posting letters to Father Christmas – it has been a busy few weeks!

We have also focussed our learning on the story of Jesus’ birth. We have talked about all of the key characters: Mary, Joseph, Jesus, the shepherds, angels, wise men, and of course, the donkey! We watched our friends in Reception and in Year 2 perform the Nativity and have really enjoyed retelling the story together.

We were all very excited to see a little snow yesterday morning and have been busy learning all about Winter this week. We have also made our Christmas hoop to display in the hall. We all added glitter to lollypop stick stars – we hope you agree it looks very beautiful and super sparkly!

This term we have focused our learning on a lovely story called, ‘WOW! Said the owl’ by Tim Hopgood. The story is about a little owl who stays awake in the daytime and finds beautiful colours in the world so we have also been finding, matching and exploring lots of colours at Froglets. We even spotted some rainbows 🙂
