Big Porridge & Play Whiteinch Week 6

5th June 2019

With our sessions drawing to a close we want to make sure our last Big Porridge & Play afternoons together are fantastic! On Wednesday at Whiteinch Library we had exactly that! We had such an enjoyable afternoon of play together!

Ruby and Jack were joined by Iona as again everyone braved the horrible weather outside to make it to the library.

We had the best Big as a Bear in Whiteinch yet. As soon as we started our warm-up, everyone was joining in with some brilliant actions too! We were so happy to see how well you have all learned this, as well as all the other songs and games! This is a great one to teach your family and friends at home and school!
After last week’s brilliant story creation with Ruby we absolutely loved hearing your story again this week – Kitty the Clown & the Naughty Seagull. Taking it in turns to read brilliantly, there was a great deal of respect shown by the rest of the group as everyone listened so well! We were so impressed by this and we can’t wait for you to show your invited guests how hard you all worked on this!

The story of Kitty the Clown was our inspiration this week, as we took turns in showing off our best and most exciting circus skills! With Ruby leading us all along the tight rope, Ava and Frankey’s high jumping, Lily’s spectacular cartwheeling and Ryder’s spinning top, we treated to some brilliant skills! Can you think of some other circus skills to try?

With the session coming up this week our last, we are super-duper excited for our Celebration afternoon! We are can’t wait to meet your invited guests and show them all the songs and games we have all played together.

I drew Kitty the Clown from the story and lots of Naughty Seagulls.” (Mum)

“I drew myself doing a cartwheel in the circus – my favourite part of today – it’s me standing on my hands.” (Child, 5)
