Summer Holidays Week 1...

For the school holidays our blog has been taken over by our KS2 children - this week M & B tell us about what the Fidlesticks children have been up to...

Easby Abbey

Easby abbey is a historical wonder full of ruins and adventures. It is a huge place full of areas to explore and stunning views. It is also a brilliant place to have a picnic.

Richmond Castle

 Richmond castle is full of  exciting views and the steepest of stairs. It has tall towers and beautiful  gardens full of colourful flowers , bushes and the tallest of trees.  I personally enjoyed the huge tower full of  extraordinary views.

The museum is full of  extraordinary things to look at and a wonderful back story of the prison cells.

Fun at Fiddlesticks

We have a wii and we like to play with it. Here is one of us trying to play a game with Cassie disturbing him.

These are some caterpillars we are raising. We are hoping they will turn into beautiful butterflies (Becky says - they won't these are moth caterpillars...).

One of the little ones painting a butterfly , we had so much fun.

We are putting some bird seed into bird feeders so we can see if any birds will eat them.

This is us building a den for the little ones we were having so much fun.

This is some of us sharing a colouring book. Some of us love sharing.

Parmo Designing Contest

We enjoyed making parmos. We put the designs into the contest then the older ones made them. We all enjoyed tasting them to see who would be crowned the Parmo King or Queen.

Picnic at the Woods

This is when we had our picnic at the woods and a little bit of play time.

Gruffalo Hunt

We had a job to do. We had to find some wooden plates and on the wooden plates were things to do with the grufflo. The gruffalo fairy hid them.

Tree Trail

This is when we looked at our cards and tried to match the leaf on the card with the leaves on the trees.

The Big Butterfly Count

The butterfly conservation was asking people to have 15 minutes sitting down and having a look for butteflies. We decided we would do the search. 

Pond Dipping

 We did pond dipping and we caught efts (baby newts)  and the older ones caught a big snail that we named Garry.

Woodland Construction

We had a den competition. I think that the little ones won because ours fell down. We had a fun day at the woods.
