Can I take a photo?

Staff in FS2 are always taking photos to capture children's achievements and activities. Elisia asked if she could too. Here are some of the photos taken by different children last week.

I think we will have a photo project next term, we have some great photographers!

Not A Box inspiration

Thank you for supporting your child and helping them to think of ideas for how they would use their box.

Here are some of the ideas from Friday's Big Talk;

I would make a ...

...robot and a car, it could be a fighting robot. Harrison
...motorbike. Robbie
...police van, it's bigger than a car. It's on an emergency. Alex
...blue racing car. Daniel
...castle for me, Mummy and coco. I'd be a princess. Summer
...an ambulance to rescue people. Abigail
...transformer car, it's white and blue. It will be a friendly transformer. Dillon
...spaceship. Sam
...castle. Ellie G
...an aeroplane with beds in it. Olivia S-S
...Power ranger car. Joe
...house and I would live in it by myself. Connor
...boat, I'd go fishing. Riley
...ninja turtle bike and all four could fit on it. Afraz
...Rapunzel castle. The people will climb up my long hair. Olivia S

Chinese New Year

I am really looking forward to next week, we are going to be finding out about Chinese New Year.
Here is a video called The Great Race, it tells the story of the Chinese Lunar calendar. Did you know this is the year of the Horse?

 

What do you know about Chinese New Year? 

Jared brought a dragon in on Friday because it was the beginning of the New Year celebrations.
Would you like to take part in a dragon dance this week?

Our week

Here is the slide show of everything FS2 has done this week. It includes using the pestle and mortars to make chalk paint and crush spices and herbs. Cardboard boxes have been a huge hit this week, we've played in castles, police cars, trains, and even an ambulance. Look out for Elisia's fabulous model of a tank she made with her big brother at home.
