Reception: making Reindeer food

This week we have learnt all of the names of Santa’s reindeer. We have looked at what reindeer look like and what they eat. We have made some magical reindeer food to take home. The children followed the instructions carefully to make their reindeer food. They can’t wait to sprinkle it outside their houses on Christmas Eve night!

Mrs Govan presented awards to the winners of our Advent Art competition and will be displaying all of the Advent Artwork in the Rose Garden in Whitehall Park today. Each class will be going to see the artwork next week and will be singing Christmas songs based on the artwork. We finished off our Worship with some beautiful and thoughtful prayers from several children and sang Christmas carols. Well done everyone, what another super week!
