We have had a very busy week in Foundation with lots of learning. Our focus story was 'The Enourmous Turnip' . The children enjoyed acting out the story and sequencing the characters.  On Thursday the children chopped the vegetables and we made a pot of soup. Most children tried it and some even had seconds. 

 We  finally said goodbye for now to our aeroplane and we have introduced an Autumn area which has been a great hit with the children and the adults.

On Friday we talked about Remembrance Day. We listened to a story called "Poppy's Day" on CBeebies. This is a child friendly story all about remembering. The children were excellent at understanding elements of this story, and it was a good example of how we should remember others. We also closed our eyes for a minute to remember people who help us and keep us safe. The children made their own poppies using paper, scissors, glue and tape.

REMINDERS

• Can I please ask that the children don't bring  bags into school as we are having problems hanging them all on pegs with winter coats etc. Your child should not need to bring anything into the unit unless they are nappies. If your child is wet we will use the spare clothes that we have in the setting to change them.
• Children are not allowed to wear jewellery or nail polish.
• Please do not send your child in with toys from home. 

I hope you all have a great weekend.
