Our term continues with the Owlets now staying all day and beginning to feel comfortabale in our school with the help of the Year 6 buddies.
Owlets have been writing the sounds they are learning – look how tricky it is to learn to write. We love the journey our children make as they develop.
They continue to build relationships, they are enjoying getting to know each other inside and in our outside area. They have also made their very own Owlet for display in the classroom.
Our first week back and we’ve all been busy. Owlets now have a Year 6 buddy and have been enjoying their free flow both inside and outside.
While the whole school enjoy the annual Den Day – in good weather – we reflect on another fantastic year at Little Melton. We enjoyed the Leavers Performance on Wednesday evening and then Friday was a busy day- bidding a fond farewell to our lovely Year 6 pupils who have done us proud for 7 years, and celebrating the end of another year of learning for our youngsters. THANK YOU all for your wonderful gifts and well wishes, and we wish you all a fabulous summer break 
Our penultimate week before the summer hols had the Owlets go on a visit to Banham Zoo, Snowy have a beach-classroom day; Barn had pop-corn as part of a celebration and Eagle are script ready for the Leavers performance.
Owlets had a lovely day on Thursday at Banham Zoo. We saw lots of different animals including one of the new tiger cubs.
Owlets had a busy week studying and handling (very carefully) the ducklings. The class were able to observe them closely and even watched them take to water – how lovely. They grew at a mighty rate, and were too big for the initial cage by Thursday, so we had to say goodbye to them. What excellent learning they have got from that lovely project. They have also released their butterflies this week and let the fly free for the summer. A lovely week for them all.
The Owlets have been very excited this week to see 5 little duck eggs arrive in an incubator. They were able to welcome the first duckling on Thursday and the others very quickly followed. Sooo lovely – the whole school have also had a visit!
Owlets had a sun week enjoying the sunshine. On Friday they were able to bring in their scooters and bikes and ride them on the playground. They had a lovely time. Next week they are expecting some very special visitors…
Welcome back! Hope you all had a lovely half term break. We have had a great first week back with our shole school enjoying Sports Day. KS1 in the morning, KS2 in the afternoon and a family picnic in between for those lucky enough to have time to make it! Thank you all for your support.
The first half of the summer term is done! We got to enjoy a range of activities this week, many of them learning outside the classroom. Have a lovely half term break everyone!
Owlets have been practising number formation and number bonds.
