  • Caterpillar find in Reception

    Published 25/06/23, by Andy Mari

    At the beginning of this half-term the children were very excited to find caterpillars in their classrooms! The children have been fascinated to watch the caterpillars grown ten times their original size! We then observed the caterpillars form a chrysalis and waited patiently for our caterpillars to finally emerge as butterflies. We have spent the last few days observing the butterflies in their tent, and today we set them free. We had a lovely time watching the butterflies leave their tent and fly away to start their life cycle all over again! At Roebuck, we are scientists!

  • Marvellous Me in Reception.

    Published 11/06/23, by Andy Mari

    This week in Reception the children have been introduced to our new exciting topic 'Marvellous Me!' The children have shared with one another photos of themselves as a baby and enjoyed guessing who the baby photo belongs to. We have discussed the human life cycle and reflected on how each of them has changed since they were a baby. We also drew self portraits and wrote sentences about how we have changed since we were born. These are all proudly on display in our classrooms.  Another highlight this week has been the delivery of our own caterpillars. We are very excited to learn about the lifecycle of a butterfly and watch the change first hand.  What a super busy week it has been! In Reception we are super learners!
