Songbird project

• Today, Jenny from Chester zoo came in to talk to us about song birds. We are starting a project to work closely with Chester zoo about all different song birds in the UK and in other countries like the Bali Starling. She will be back in 2 weeks when we will be going to spot birds in our school environment! Today we touched feathers, learned a song and found out how to tell if an animal is a bird!

  2M had fun today learning all about song birds. Thank you to Jenny from Chester Zoo for coming in and working with us.

Wellbeing and Love Cafe

• 1H had a lovely pamper day with our parents on Wednesday. We took part in yoga, relaxation, baking and sensory play with bath bombs. It was good to spend time with those that we love and take some out of our busy day to relax.
  
  Then on Valentines Day we were treated to a love cafe hosted by the school council, we had cakes, bracelets and free hugs! It was lovely and we really enjoyed it, take a look at our video.
