The children did very well listening and joining in with the story. They then used the leaves they had collected to make their own leaf thief! The children have made lots of diffent creations with their leaves this week. 

Outdoor Learning 

As the season is changing the children are noticing more changes in the natural enviornment. They used their gross motor skills to clean up the outoor area with a range of tools.  

The children also got to work in the garden area. They raked and dug the soil, ready to plant some tulips.
