He has terrible tusks, and terrible claws, And terrible teeth in his terrible jaws... Who could it be? The Gruffalo!
We have loved our shared reading text, The Gruffalo. We have spent time learning the story and have even used drama to re create the scenes. We had a special delivery from the library service, The Gruffalo puppets! The children have loved using the puppets and can remember the story. The children have also learnt The Gruffalo song and performed it together.
"He has knobbly knees, and turned-out toes" - Meredith
"The mouse is the scariest creature in the wood" - Dexter
"The mouse likes Gruffalo crumble" - Kasper

EYFS have been working hard on developing their fine motor skills. The children have been grasping, squashing, stretching, threading, poking and printing to strengthen their fine motor skills. They are doing this so that they can further develop their pencil control. The children have loved filling water, mark making in sand and glitter, threading and dot painting.

Everyone in school took part in our annual Fun Run to raise contributions for PTA school projects.
Unfortunately due to the weather this year we could not take part all together on our field.
Instead each class took their turn to complete laps of our playground track in Fancy Dress.
We counted our laps in 10 minutes.
"I always look forward to the Fun Run. This year I brought my dinosaur costume but still managed to do 15 laps!" - Josh Y4
"I really enjoy dressing up every year and doing the laps with my friends. We always end up on the same because we run side by side" - Holly Y5
"I'm sad that this was my last Fun Run in St Basil's. I managed to do 26 laps this time" - Alma Y6

The children in EYFS have been learning about different places that we can travel to! We have opened our very own Travel Agents and Airport. The children have had so much fun booking their adventure and travelling to the airport! Spain has been a very popular destination!

To celebrate or first week in EYFS, we brought in our favourite teddy bears from home and had a Teddy Bear's Picnic! We had jam sandwiches, biscuits, juice and sausage rolls! We all made our own teddy bear headbands to wear for the picnic. The children enjoyed talking about their favourite teddy bear with their new friends! What a lovely day!
"My favourite teddy bear sleeps with me." - Delilah
"Mine is a bunny because it is my favourite animal." - Polly

Every year, we raise funds for our PTA by taking part in the 2p Challenge.
Over a month, we collect as many 2ps as we can at home.
Then on the challenge day, we bring them in to school and create lines on the playground.
We measure them and decide which year were the winners.
This year's winners were ... Year 4
