Forest School in EYFS

Every Monday, children from our EYFS classes visit Tehidy Woods for outdoor learning. This week, twelve children accompanied Mr Lawrence and Mrs Sciascia and had a great time making camps, building dens and following a trail. The highlight of the afternoon though, was hot chocolate and biscuits!

Potions from Room on the Broom

We made potions after reading Room on the Broom by Julia Donaldson.

 

Camp Fires and Pop Corn

This half term, Mrs Ishmael and Mrs Sciascia have taken groups of children on to the school field to make a campfire. The children in Gwithian and Godrevy carefully followed instructions and learned how to keep safe. When the fire was ready, the children cooked popcorn and tasted it. They loved to see and hear the corn popping in the pan!

 

 

This week in EYFS

This week in Gwithian and Godrevy we have been learning about the Three Little Pigs. We have learnt the story, made wanted posters for the big bad wolf, made puppets and masks and investgated the properties of straw, bricks and sticks. We also did a lot of huffing and puffing!

Our new bikes!!

Bikes for Beginners

A big THANK YOU to all the families who voted for our cause at the Tesco branches in Redruth and Pool. We were awarded £2,000 and were able to purchase over a dozen new bikes and safety equipment. The children have enjoyed riding them in the beautiful late February weather.

St Piran's Day

Gwithian and Godrevy had a fabulous day celebrating the Cornish Saint Piran. We wore Cornish colours, made Cornish flags, baked Cornish Fairings, learned two Cornish dances, sang Cornish songs and created a flock of choughs for the school foyer!

We are proud to be a Cornish School.
