This afternoon, the children in Nippers Class were the first to use our new cooking equipment and oven, kindly funded by The Cornish Pasty Association. The children followed instructions carefully, worked together to weigh the ingredients using the scales, and observed and discussed how the ingredients changed throughout the baking process. During the activity, they developed a wide range of skills, including Mathematics, Understanding the World, Physical Development, Communication and Language, and Personal, Social and Emotional Development (PSED). We all enjoyed tasting the delicious biscuits we made. Thank you to the Cornish Pasty Association for supporting this wonderful learning opportunity! #realexperiences #LoveLearning #eyfs

We were delighted to receive some exciting post last week letting us know that we had won a competition from Read for Good. Seals Class were thrilled to receive this wonderful story, filled with amazing vocabulary, and thoroughly enjoyed sharing it together. We know it will be a fantastic addition to our school library. Thank you, Read for Good! #lovereading #readforgood #competitionwinner

Our Early Years children have been discovering lots of fun ways to stay cool during the recent hot weather. Our outside area, especially our Sand and Water Garden has been the perfect shady spot for splashing, scooping, pouring and exploring, encouraging plenty of imaginative play and hands-on learning while keeping cool! #eyfs #HeatWaveReady #collaboration #LoveLearning
