In Reception, we are inquiring into the way that ‘Places can be special to people for a variety of reasons.’ We are carefully observing the construction of the new building and have been visiting to draw and record what we have noticed. There has been a lot of interest in the materials that are being used, and we have seen bricks, concrete and metal. We could smell strong glue. And we have seen so many shapes! The best part was when we waved to the builders and they waved back! We are looking forward to being able to use this special place when we are in Year 1.
