DOBCROFT INFANT SCHOOL

Friday blog from the Foundation team

Class: Mice Year: 2019 - 2020

Friday 27th March

Hello all!

Thanks to those of you who have checked in with the school. We are really glad you are safe and well. If you are in a whatsapp group with any parents, please could you remind them to check in if they haven't? We don't want to be bugging people with phone calls when they are fine. Thanks.

The Foundation stage team have been working hard, some of us from home and some of us at school. We have also been in our gardens enjoying the sunshine and looking at all the flowers and insects that are buzzing around in the sun.

Mrs Shepherd has been busy tidying out the sheds and organising all the resources ready for us to go back to school. 

     

Mrs Shep got a pudding as a reward!

Everyone has been doing the morning keep fit with Joe Wicks and finding it very tiring! 

Mrs Featherstone had a visitor at her house this morning when she was in bed.... Can you see who it is?

It's a nosey blue tit! He kept coming back and looking through the window!
