Hardwick Italiano Ristorante! ๐Ÿ•๐Ÿ

Mama mia! What a fantastic week in Hardwick, we have transported to Italy, another city for our Big City Bright Lights topic. The children have cooked and tasted some amazing traditional Italian feasts. It was Bellissimo. We took the experience to the Next level and fully got into characters while listening to Italian opera. ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡น

Eliza has been really engaged when it has come to standing and walking. She has been taking her weight more consistently over the past few weeks. She does need encouragement in the form of songs but this does highly motivate her. Well done Eliza ๐Ÿ˜€

Dear Parents,

We would like to welcome all the children back to Hardwick class after the summer break!ย  We have an exciting autumn term ahead of us with new topic, Bright Lights, Big City. ย This will involve us exploring the countries that make up the United Kingdom, as well as a local area. ย We will have lots of fun using our senses to find out about the features of different places.ย  As well as this, we will be exploring the sights, sounds and smells of our capital city of London, working together to choose and create a display of famous a London landmark.

As a class, we will go back in time to explore the Great Fire of London, delving into a sensory story about the event.ย  Learning about the Queen Elizabeth ll, we will role-play a royal tea party.

The children will also explore how other capital cities are different, bringing back animals from around the world to take in the sights of London before introducing them to their forever home at London Zoo.

The development of the childrenโ€™s physical and communication skills is an ongoing thread through the many daily activities.ย  Each morning we have mixed task series programmes across the Warwick, Durham, Hardwick and Edinburgh classes, allowing flexibility regarding the most appropriate group for each pupil every day.

New termly targets are on the way and we hope you find these an encouraging reflection of your childโ€™s next steps.ย  As always, please donโ€™t hesitate to get in touch about anything at all.

Best Wishes,

The Harwick Team
