Reception have recently enjoyed cross-curricular activities based on the story of Jack and the Beanstalk. Using the outdoor learning area in glorious weather, children took delight in the challenge of an obstacle course that led to the giant's castle. At the end of their journey they found a pot of gold and had great fun counting out coins.
