Watching the butterflies





This week Reception have been thrilled to come each day and see what's been happening to the caterpillars. They have now nearly all emerged as beautiful butterflies ready to be set free, once the weather is kind enough! Some children spotted how the patterns on their wings are 'symmetrical'. The other very exciting thing that has happened was a quick visit on Friday to their Year 1 class. The children came back full of the exciting topics they will be studying, including a hint that they will be turning the school into a cinema and that they will be finding out what like was like "even before our mums and dads were born"! They will be spending another day in Year 1 during the last week of term.
