Not long now!

We are getting really excited ... it is only a few days to go before we have our Production!  We are looking forward to transforming ourselves into African animals for a dance! We hope you will come along  and enjoy our performance. Thank you so much to all the people who have helped us to create awesome looking costumes!

Congratulations to these wonderful children who received our REACH awards today. These children are truly showing our Ashley School values! Well done.

REACH

We are so proud of these children who got the first special awards  for showing our REACH values at Ashley School.  

We show lots of our REACH values when working together at Discovery Time. We especially like helping each other and trying new things.  Check out just some of the choices on offer today.
Pretty painted peacocks, brilliant paper  boats, beautiful baby birds and building our own dinosaurs!

We also celebrated the achievements of these clever children who have been super readers and writers. Another step up on our Peaks of Achievement !

We are really loving reading to each other on a Friday afternoons!  
We get to choose books from our browser boxes and just  read, read, read!  
We help each other when we get stuck! 

 We have so much fun at Discovery Time.  
We love collaborating with Room 6 and we always get lots of good ideas and help from each other! 
 We love choosing different ideas to explore our creative sides and are very focussed when we do!  
Check out this quality work:
