Wilton Expects Focus

The children have been learning about the value of British democracy and the importance it has in our country. They have also been showing the value of working together learning about collaboration.

Next week the children will be focusing on compassion.

EYFS Mrs Wardle Class round up

Early Years have been exploring the changes that happen in our world in Winter. They have been learning about what animals do as the weather gets colder and which animals like to live in the cold.

We have been reading stories  about penguins and other polar region animals. We have enjoyed making igloos with sugar cubes and homes for the animals. Jack Frost also made a visit and turned everywhere white and frosty. the children investigated ice, frost and snow.

They carried out experiments to find out what makes ice and we discovered other things that can melt.

We have explored winter colours, mixing different shades of icy blue and made snowflakes and winter collages that have turned our classroom into a winter wonderland.

Breakfast Club

Did you know we do a breakfast club every morning? You can bring your child in, knowing they’ll get a good breakfast before they start school.

This is open to everyone and can be booked in the clubs section on the school gateway app.

It costs £1.20 for each morning your child attends.
