Look at our wonderful Talk for Writing in EYFS! Our children are loving Owl Babies, exploring adjectives to describe Mummy Owl through acting, art, craft and small-world play. Building vocabulary and developing oral retelling skills. @piecorbett.bsky.social @marymyatt.bsky.social #englishstc

Reception children built a fantastic nest inspired by our Owl Babies story. Our nest was big enough to fit us all in and we were very proud of our creation. Great team work! #EYFSstc

Our school growing garden is bursting with produce! Pupils harvested peppers, tomatoes and herbs that they’ve worked hard to grow and care for. A reward for dedication and a celebration of outdoor learning! #UnitySTC @gardenersworldmag.bsky.social @elliechowns.bsky.social @schoolgardens.bsky.social

Class 2 enjoyed learning all about the artist Paul Klee! They created their own visual notes, capturing key points about his work, alongside examples of his artwork. They were inspired by his use of colour, shapes and lines and enjoyed exploring these features in their own creative way. #artstc

All aboard! Some Reception children decided to make themselves an aeroplane to go on holiday. They then decided to make a bigger plane so that the whole class could join in. They decided to take books, give out ‘tickets’ and lights. We even had air stewards giving out food! #EYFSstc
