For 5PJ’s visit to Beech’s Base the theme for Forest Fun today was linked to our History topic – The Victorians. We discussed when this period of time existed and how life would have been like. Some of the activities included exploring Den Building and Creating Peg Dolls and creating a Victorian Chemist role play game. The children were able to explain what the word ‘Era’ means. The children also used hand drills to make holes in conkers and played the traditional game.

Thanks for a super day 5PJ.

Well done to 6B for writing their own acrostic poems and performing them in church today.

5PJ have had their first visit to Beech’s Base … I hope they really enjoyed their day.

Our theme for Forest Fun today was linked to our  Geography topic – Resources.. We discussed what this meant and how we can use resources from the environment. Some of the vocabulary included being efficient and effective.  Today’s activities included Purifying water, Den Building, Leaf Printing and Acorn painting. The children developed a game where they created a currency using acorns this helped demonstrate how trading helped with being sustainable . We cooked baked beans over the fire and ate with bread :).

Thanks for a super day 4J
