Welcome to Parrots!

Parrots class logoHello everyone,

We just wanted to say, we are so happy that you will be part of our class next year, we are going to have so much fun! We hope you have a wonderful summer that is full of adventures. It is going to be such an exciting time for us all as we move from Squirrels to Parrots class!

Since we have 6 weeks of summer to play with, we thought you might like some fun activities to try over the next few weeks. DON’T WORRY, IT IS NOT HOMEWORK! These activities are optional, which means you may choose as little or many as you like. You can do them alone, with some friends or someone in your family. Bring them in the first week back to school, or some photographs we can show our friends during show and tell and then put them on our ‘Wow Work Wall’. In Parrots we each have our own space on the wall just like in Squirrels. Please could you also bring in a family photo so we can put it on their special space. I am looking forward to being your teacher from September.

Have a wonderful summer,

Mrs Fisk, Mrs Raymond, Mrs Coffey and Miss Wakeling

Remember they are optional!

List of possible activities:

  • Helicopter Story – Can you create your own helicopter story? It can be about whatever you wish. Bring in your props and tell it to your friends when we come back to school.
  • Let’s get crafty! – Can you create some beautiful pieces of art involving a parrot? It can be anything from a painting to a 3D model. You can use pens, pencils, paint etc.
  • Can you go on an adventure? – Whether it’s on holiday or a trip to the park, when you visit take lots of photographs and bring them into school.
  • Summer Journal – Make a picture journal of your summer. Each week take 3 or 4 pictures of some of the things you are doing. Put your photos into your journal and write a description about each picture.
  • If you can think of any other activities, feel free to bring in anything that reminds you of having an awesome summer.
