In Acorns, we love Forest School! We get to explore our lovely wooded area and join in with many activities such as den building, leaf rubbings, comparing and measuring natural objects and creating pictures using sticks. Our Acorns children are very interested in nature and animals and are often found hunting for minibeasts or creating them homes.

Our Christian values for this term are generosity and compassion. We learnt about what it means to be generous and talked about how we have shown generosity in our own lives. We listened to the story of 'The Magic paintbrush' and thought about how we would spread generosity if we had a magic paintbrush. 

In RE lessons, we have been learning about Saint Francis and how he looked after animals and birds. We went on a nature walk and talked about how we could look after our own natural environment in school. 

We have also been learning about festivals such as Harvest and talked about special foods that are used in festivals. We even got to taste some yummy donuts like our friends at the local Jewish school told us that they had at  Hanukkah.
