Week 1

We have been getting creative this week, designing their very own bonfire and fireworks-inspired bracelets! Using a mix of colourful materials, they explored joining techniques with staplers, cellotape, and glue to bring their dazzling designs to life.

We began by talking about the sights and colours we see during Bonfire Night — from sparkling bursts of gold to swirling shades of blue and red. Inspired by these dazzling displays, the children used paint and pastels to create their own firework pictures, experimenting with colour, texture, and movement.

We have been busy building their own towers using blocks! As they stacked each one, they counted how many they used and noticed how adding more made their towers grow taller. It was a fantastic way to explore early maths skills through hands-on play and discovery!
