This week the children in Reception started their new topic ‘Fantastic Lights’ which started off with a bang!
The children began the week by exploring the outdoor environment to find natural materials to build their own mini bonfires and then experienced a real one. They made firework pictures using a range of media and really had fun getting their fingers messy!
As it was also Diwali this week the children role played the diwali story, had fun performing some Indian dancing, making a diwa, mehendi patterns and pretending to be a firework.
Have a look below at what we did this week:
