During the Spring term, our History topic was ‘toys old and new’.The children thoroughly enjoyed this topic.They brought in their own toys as well as sharing some of their parent’s toys with the rest of the class.

A real highlight was our visit to the museum of childhood.  Here are some photos of the children hard at work and having a little bit of fun too!

Here are the children dressed up as toys for their Dance show.

The children enjoyed their Science topic of sounds and hearing in the
Spring Term. 

Here are some photos of the children experimenting with a variety of musical instruments, seeing the different sounds that they made.  It was a loud lesson, but great fun too!

At the beginning of March we had our Science day.  It was a great day that was thoroughly enjoyed by all.  The children had a fab day with Gary the clown, where they enjoyed a variety of activities including making animals from balloons and spinning plates!  Here are some photos showing how the children got on!

Below are some pictures of children in the Easter Production – Easter Eggstravaganza, Ditties through the Decades. Our class song was 'The Laughing Policeman'. The children were all dressed up as Laughing Policemen with few mischievous robbers too. It was a wonderful production and the children all had a great time.

At the end of the Spring Term the children paraded around the Harrodian grounds in their Easter Bonnets. The sun was shining and the children all looked brilliant and there were some simply amazing hats made for the occasion.

Our topic for this half term was Plant and Growth. We looked at plants in our local area and what plants need to grown, we even grew our own broad beans. A real highlight of the term was our class trip to Kew Gardens.
Here are some pictures of the children on our class trip having fun at Kew.
