PE. This half term in PE the children are taking part in Drumba, using music to exercise and move their body to the rhythm of the music.
During topic work the children have been learning about ‘Weather’ and seasonal changes. We planted sunflower seeds and talked about how the changes in the weather will help them to grow.
