Life Cycle of a Butterfly in Nursery, by Mrs Andrews
Date: 27th May 2022 @ 3:46pm
In nursery we have been learning about the life cycle of a butterfly. We watched the caterpillars grow and then turn into a cocoon. After two weeks they became butterflies. We then fed them fruit and after a few days we released them into our butterfly garden at St. Peter's. To help us learn about the life cycle we painted caterpillars, made caterpillars with the playdough, made repeating patterns, we even made a butterfly dance. We have really enjoyed watching and learning all about the life cycle of a butterfly.
Our Blackpool Coastlines and Sealife trip, by Mrs Gill
Date: 26th May 2022 @ 10:19am
What an amazing day the children had on Friday 20th May 2022 when we went to Blackpool to look at the coastlines and the underwater sealife that live there. which linked to our Geography topic about coastlines. The children were amazed to know that so many sealife creatures could inhabit the sea at one given time. They learnt that sharks never went to sleep and were always moving. Whilst in the Sealife centre, the children met Phoenix the turtle who at the age of 22 is considered a baby! When we visited the beach and looked at the coastlines, the children were able to pick up some sea shells before the tide came in. We all had a wonderful and memorable day!

This half term we have been learning all about growth and mini-beasts. We started the half term with a non-fiction book 'Things with Wings' to learn more about mini-beasts, we have also been sharing the stories 'Superworm' and 'Jack and the Beanstalk'.
During provision we have been super busy, a few of the activities we enjoyed were;
-using a simple map to find the mini-beasts and write down what the mini-beast was
-we planted carrots and cabbage, we know how to look after them and what they need to grow
-writing clues about a mini-beasts in the investigation tuff tray

3H in Blackpool! Our coastlines trip 20.05.22, by Miss Healey
Date: 23rd May 2022 @ 9:49am
We had such a wonderful time in Blackpool! We saw so many underwater creatures that inhabit our coastlines. We learnt a cool trick where if the glass was cold to touch that meant the animals lived in our UK waters, if it was slightly warmer, they didn't. It was very interesting comparing these animals' features. We found Phoenix the sea turtle and learnt that despite being 24 stone, she was just a baby! (A 22 year old baby because sea turtles can live to over a hundred years old!) We then went out to the beach, we saw some of the tourist attractions and other things that bbring people to the coast. We found loads of cool seashells and brought them back to school, then we watched as the tide came in. We had so much fun!

Our completed frog life cycle! Year 3, by Miss Healey
Date: 26th Apr 2022 @ 4:00pm
Last half term we began our frog life cycle with putting frogspawn in our pond and keeping some in our classroom to observe over the next few weeks. We noted lots of changes and watched as our frogspawn became tadpoles, then froglets with hind legs, fore legs and finally a distinguished head. Once we came back after the Easter holidays, we found the tails of our froglets had disappeared and our tiny little frogs were sat on the rocks out of the water breathing air! We then went to our pond, placing them gently back in their natural habitat. Hopefully we will get new frogspawn next Spring to fully complete our cycle. Take a look at our little frogs!
