Welcome to the Owls Class!
Dear Owls class,
Welcome back for another term. I hope you had a wonderful Easter holiday with your families! This term our topic is Castles, we will learn about Castles, paint castles and build castles! We have lots of fun activities ahead of us, including the 'Big Castle Build' and a Princess and Prince dress up day. I can't wait to learn and play with you!
Best wishes,
Miss Baker

Fun on the farm!
Continuing our learning about instructions and following instructions, Owls class helped Miss Baker make a jam sandwich. They had to be really specific with their instructions so Miss Baker did the right thing at the right time!
Forest Club is such fun!
From mud potions, to den building, to clay faces, to vegetable paint. The Owls experience a different outdoor learning experience, every week!
Pancake day

Owls class loved exploring the story 'Naughty Bus' and produced some wonderful work based around the book.
