Today in @birchclassHFS we went outside for our Maths lesson to begin our topic on shape. We went in groups on a shape hunt, looked at making triangles, sorting shapes and making repeating patterns.

Great stuff Squirrels! A great use of the pod space outside on #Outdoorclassroomday
Outdoor learning day has begun! We’ve taken our Maths learning to the pods and we’re enjoying the fresh air as we learn.

There's pizza and cake on the menu in the mud kitchen and we're trying hard to light the stove in the loose parts area!

We had an excellent outdoor day with our friends @HazelClassHFS. We were super impressed with Year One’s determination, concentration and resilience.

Plenty of green fingers in @BrambleClassHFS 💚🪴 This half term in science we have been investigating the right conditions needed for seeds to germinate. Look at our amazing bean plants… Jack would be proud! 🌱🐄

We had a great science lesson looking at the properties of materials. We tested to see if things were bendy or not bendy and transparent or opaque.

We had another great session outside today, this time investigating the properties of materials. Are they bendy or not bendy? Transparent or opaque?

We went outside during Science yesterday to spot signs of spring. We heard birdsong, saw tulips and noticed that it was warmer than when we went out in winter (only just!)

In Science today we went on a walk to spot the signs of spring. It was hard to hear the birds sing with all the noise, but we did see lovely flowers, blossom and birds flying in the sky. We also spotted lots of bugs!
