Rainy days don’t stop the fun at our school! Through OPAL play, our pupils love exploring, splashing and getting muddy while developing creativity, teamwork and resilience. Outdoor play in all weathers helps children build confidence and enjoy learning through play—and the smiles say it all!
Pupils have been enjoying creative indoor play during the snowy weather, staying active and building teamwork and problem-solving skills while learning together indoors.
Pupils are enjoying such creative play and outdoor activities. They are developing their balance skills whilst walking on barrels! Preparing for Using tyres to create an obstacle course and developing their den space. Spring planting daffodil bulbs and demonstrated teamwork in building a walking trail. It’s lovely to see the children from all year groups working together.
Wearing wellies allowed them to access the play area more effectively, broadening opportunities for outdoor learning. These activities provided valuable hands-on experience while enhancing the school grounds for future use.
What a wonderful time enjoyed by all!
This week, our creative thinkers explored the magic of wind through Opal Play. From soaring hot air balloons to swirling parachutes, the children discovered how air and movement can transform play into a world of wonder. With curious minds and imaginative hands, they experimented, problem-solved, and let their ideas take flight—literally!
Wow… look at what our architects and engineers have transformed using crates, tubes, cardboard and crates into an incredible world of transportation and adventure! 🚂 From choo-choo trains to zooming airplanes, and even a cosy café for pit stops – their creativity knows no bounds! ✨
The playground turned into a bustling city today, complete with houses, slides, and yes, even a rollercoaster (because why not?)! 🎢
It’s amazing to see how a simple cardboard box can become anything in the hands of these imaginative minds! 🌟 Who knew recycling could be this much fun? 🎉
