Erpingham Preschool opening

Norman Lamb MP opened our new Blue Sky Federation pre-school over at Erpingham called Little Brown Hare Pre-School. We helped Norman plant a tree, explored the yurt and heated amphitheatre. 

We made some wonderful fat bird feeder balls as Erpingham have lots of different types of birds on their grounds that will hopefully come more often now for their yummy bird feeders. 

When we went on our trip to Homebase we thought we would buy Erpingham some opening gifts. We brought them some heather and seeds that they can plant in their wonderful grounds.

Winter

This term we having been exploring winter. We got busy making our artic animals homes.

Our winter wonderland got too small for all the animals so we moved it to a bigger space.

"Oh no we need a fence, they going to escape"

We have had a brilliant time watching the ice melt and freeing the animals.

Spring Term Pre-school Update 1

Digging for dinosaurs

We have enjoyed learning about dinosaurs this week and decided that we would make a dinosaur adventure land. We thought about what they might need and made a map so that we could navigate our way around and then a swamp where the dinosaurs could swim. 

The Littlest Christmas Tree

We performed our play at the church on the last day. There was a lot of hard work that went into it, we decided what we wanted to be in the play, learnt the songs and made some of our costumes.

Here are a few snapshots.

We were super stars and performed on stage, which was great fun!

Christmas Festivities

Well our last week of term was packed full of different festive things for us to do. We decorated our Christmas tree with lots of sparkly things.

We had a magical Christmas party and just when we thought it had finished looked who came to say hello......

After all of that chatting to Santa about what we had been up to we had a yummy Christmas lunch with all of the children and staff of Northrepps Primary School. 

We went to see Jack and the Beanstalk with the whole school at Norwich Theatre. 

Playing eye spy on the bus was fun. 

"I see a plane"

The show was amazing, sparkly costumes, a really big giant and a pink cow. We sat on the edge of our seats excited to see what was going to happen next. We had a bite to eat before heading back.

A huge thank you to our super Friends Committee who do a fabulous job at fundraising and enable us to go on adventures like this one.
