“In my career I have visited well over 200 Primary schools and spending time in schools with such high standards was not a common experience”. Mark Smee

Spring 2- we have learnt all about mini beasts. To inspire our learning, our story launches this half term were 'Superworm' by Julia Donaldson and 'The Very Hungry Caterpillar' by Eric Carle. First we created a super worm wormery. We fed our worms our apple cores, carrot tops, banana peels and lots of soil and enjoyed observing earth worm doing their fantastic job. Then we hatched 5 tiny caterpillars and carefully observed their fascinating life cycle- from growing up to 10x in size, forming a chrysalides and then emerging as beautiful butterflies which we then released into our school garden.
