The children have been working hard in our fabulous sensory garden throughout the year with the help and support of Mrs Boyes and Mrs Eddon. The garden is now looking amazing and the children have been excited to sample the produce that they have grown here and in the playgrounds across school. Over this week they have tasted potatoes, strawberries and, this morning, Years One and Two have been sampling their home grown lettuce accompanied by an optional homemade dip!
The Year One and Two children had a fabulous visit to Whitby yesterday. With the warm weather there were lots of opportunities to keep cool with an ice lolly, under the shade of the trees in Pannett Park and in the sea for a little splash and paddle. The children talked a lot about the geographical features as part of their learning but the children have also made some wonderful memories!
The children will have lots of imaginative ways of using these in their play! Thank you to JT Atkinson for their kind donation and to Alex for collecting and delivering for us!
Following on from the wind, rain and hail of the last few weeks, we have made the most of a break in the cloud to host our sports day for the children this afternoon. Staff and children were sad not to be able to share the event with our wider community but we challenged the children to double their efforts to cheer on their classmates and friends! And they certainly did! Whilst some of them may have had a few 'butterflies in their tummies', every child participated with a smile on their face and with huge pride at the end of their races! There were races for every class from Nursery through to Year Two from running races and teddy bear races to obstacle races and three-legged races. A great day everyone – we are all so proud of you!
There are two great upcoming opportunities for families to join us in our school grounds. The first is on Thursday evening to celebrate International Day of Play when we are inviting current families to join us for some OPAL Outdoor Play and Learning CIC! Explore the extensive school grounds and the wealth of resources for play between 5.30 and 6.30pm. We will also be open for Friends of Pickering Infant and Nursery School's Pickering Open Gardens this Saturday when the grounds will be open to our wider community to come and see what is on offer at Pickering Infant and Nursery School. There will be plenty of play opportunities, some home baked goodies for sale, games and a plant stall. Please come and join us. Tickets on sale at Reeds Newsagent, Market Place.
