November in First Class

14th Feb 2026

Please see a snapshot of our learning in November. The children were busy exploring odd and even numbers, developing their problem-solving skills, and investigating 3D shapes. You’ll see from our 3D shape nets and shape hunts how much we enjoyed our hands-on learning. We also worked on our Tennis Skills in P.E.

In art, we embraced a winter theme with our snowscape paintings and each child creating their own unique, self-directed penguin. It was lovely to see their creativity shine through — no two penguins were the same!

There has also been lots of cooperative learning, with children working together, sharing ideas, and supporting one another throughout activities.

We are so proud of their effort, teamwork, and enthusiasm. Well done everyone!
