Room on the Broom!

Thursday 24 October 2024

Over the last two weeks the children have enjoyed reading Room on the Broom by Julia Donaldson

In forest school, we made our own cauldron to help the Witch make a new broomstick. Here are a few things the children could recall from the story.

We made a pot for the Witch, from Room on the Broom -Oria

A cauldron, some sticks and some leaves- J

We put some feathers in, they make the broomstick- T

We need to make a potion and cast a spell- Blossom

Some big sticks to hold up the cauldron- Avery

Dragon, he flew after the Witch -Noyan

Help at Home: Let’s get crafty!

The children have enjoyed lots of creative activities this week.

Could you make something at home relating to our story? a few ideas could be, your own wand, creating a Witches face using different shapes, exploring pumpkins, making potions.

Don’t forget the outdoors is a wonderful place to get messy!

Notice:

We’ve had a wonderful first half term and the children have all made some fantastic progress, we’re extremely proud!

We would also like to thank Miss Harvey! Miss Harvey is sadly leaving St.James to pursue her career in teaching and we wish her all the best with her future endeavours.

You may have noticed that Miss Feldman has been in Nursery recently. Miss Feldman will now be in Nursery as our full time Teaching Assistant. The children have already welcomed her with open arms and we’re looking forward to our next half term.

Have a happy and healthy break and we will see you all on Monday 04 November.
