A squelchy time at Forest School

We had the most fabulous time on our mud slide and discovered that we can go super fast when it is wet.

"Yeeeeheeeee here we come"

It was a little bit rainy so we made a den.

People that help us

We have been very busy at preschool learning all about the different people that help us in the community. 

One of the RNLI speakers came in to tell us all about how to stay safe when we are at the beach and all the good work they do. We got shown the uniform that all lifeguards wear so that we know who to speak to in an emergency. 

Our role play area has been made into a fire station where we can save all our toys from fires. We have all made firefighter badges as well. 

We made some orange foam which we pretended was fire and put it out with the help of our super speedy fire engine. 

 

Potions, pumpkins and fireworks

This week at preschool we have been very busy scooping out pumpkins, making some potions and clay hedgehogs. 

Inside we have been scooping out pumpkins and separating the pulp from the seeds so we could use the seeds as hedgehog spikes. We had great fun moving the pulp from one pumpkin to another and making lots of birthday cakes. 

 

In our potion station we have had many different coloured potions such as pink, blue, yellow and green. As well as lots of different ingredients to add some extra texture and scent. 

We have also been making clay hedgehogs with our left over pumpkin seeds and sticks and leaves we have found on our trips to forest school. 

We have also made some fantastic rockets for bonfire night using lots of different materials. 

The end of half-term

The end of our half term was also the end of space week and, we had one last trip to the moon with Zebedi the alien before he had to go back to his home planet. 

We went on another very exciting trip to the post box to post all our old peers that have moved onto new schools the cards that we had made them.

At the end of term we were very busy preparing for our Harvest festival at the church. Our art table was always full as we made some wonderful leaf masks and crowns to wear for our autumn leaves song that we had all been practicing at Pre-school.
