Reception have had a wonderful week getting ready to celebrate the Mid-Autumn festival.
They have joined in with a huge variety of activities from card and lantern making to even having a go at becoming a mini chef and creating their own mooncakes. While participating in these activities the children were developing their fine motor skills.
Fine motor activities involve small muscles working with the brain and nervous system to control movements in areas such as the hands and fingers. Developing fine motor skills helps children do things like eating, writing, manipulating objects and getting dressed independently.
Well done Reception! We hope you all have an amazing holiday!
