F1's Fun and Healthy Week

What a great week we've had in F1! As we celebrate 'Healthy Living Week', we have done a variety of activities to promote healthy eating and physical fitness.

To promote physical fitness, we started our days this week with 'Zumba'. Ms Christine have been teaching us how to move our bodies to different beats. All the children enjoyed this activity and we are thinking of introducing Yoga next time to keep us strong, healthy and ready for our day in school. 

This week, we have also started using the big playground to have a go at different games that we will play on the EYFS Activity day. We tried throwing javelins and playing football too. Next week, we will try jumping over hurdles and playing relays.  

-In the role-play area, we have made a hospital role-play where the children can pretend to be doctors, nurses and patients. It is amazing how the children take on roles very seriously and the language they use are fantastic too! They have been using words such as 'medicine', 'sick', 'fever', 'broken arm/leg', 'vaccine' and 'hospital' as they play with each other. Some children are very particular in taking care of the sick babies. They give them milk, change their clothes and make sure that they have their blankets on whilst they are asleep. Very sweet children!

-As part of our community project, we have donated the money that we got from our Family Morning's bake sale to ARC (Animal Rescue and Care). The money will be used to care for a rescued dog named Ricky. ARC visited our class and showed Ricky's photo and even brought with them two lovely dogs. We had a go at giving them gentle strokes! ARC is very thankful for our generosity. We hope Ricky will find a home soon!

-Our window display at the moment showcases all the children's artwork with fruits and vegetables. We did stamping and printing of an orange, apple, celery, tomato, lime, lady finger and carrot. Most of the children were able to recognise and name the fruits and vegetables they used for their artwork. 

-For ICT, we have been learning how to use the IWB wand. We have been playing the game 'Make a Pizza' on the 'busythings' website. Children are expected to drag the ingredients to the pizza dough by pressing the button all the way to where they want the ingredient to be placed. 

-This morning, we also had our very first 'Splash Day'. We made big bubbles using hoops, played with water balloons and swam together. We splashed water at each other, made bubbles in the water and even tried swimming with our faces in the water. It was a great way to develop the children's water confidence and explore what they can do at this stage. 

Fantastic week indeed! A big well done to all the children for making this week a fun and exciting one!
