Florence Nightingale
We had a very special visitor in Year 1 this week, Florence Nightingale. She told us all about her life and work.
We learned that she wanted to be a nurse even though her parents did not agree. She changed nursing and
saved lots of lives. She cleaned the hospitals and made sure all patients were clean and cared for. We asked
her lots of questions. She even brought a sick soldier with her and she quickly made him better!
Emergency at Earl Spencer
Our Trip to the Firestation
Food Glorious Food!
In Science we have been learning all about our senses. We learned that we have 5 senses and what we use each
one for. We had great fun using our sense of taste trying out different foods.
Why not sing along to the song we have been sing in school to help us to learn about our
senses. 
"Charlie's Superhero Underpants"
We got a letter from Charlie asking us to help him find the Yeti who had stolen his superhero underpants.
We helped by making wanted posters. The Yeti had a change of heart and returned Charlie's pants, but
they were FROZEN!! 
Superhero Fun
In Topic we have been busy building Superhero Dens with Lego. We also made some Superhero masks.
We really enjoyed making the masks and played lots of games in our outdoor area wearing our masks.
The Great Outdoors
Welcome to our new outdoor area! We have been having lots of fun exploring it and playing with all the great new
games and equipment in it. We have been busy playing Superheroes in our Superhero Rescue Centre and driving
around in our Superhero car
Phonics
We have been practicing our Phase 2 and 3 sounds in phonics.
Feel free to practice at home using the sound mats below
Maths
We have been practicing our numbers. Luckily we didn't forget it all over the summer
We even managed to count all the way to 100!
We have been singing this song to help us count! Why not have a go at home and become
a counting expert
