Mrs Whitmarsh's Butterfly Diaries

I have held off this post until today, as although I let my butterflies go last weekend, it seemed appropriate to post about it today.

The reason I say that, is because today is the day we say goodbye to our Year 6 pupils. Just like the butterflies, they will be going out into the world away from Oakwood and for the year 6 pupils, finding their own path in their new schools.

We wish them all the very best and remind them that they will always be part of the Oakwood Family!

A Big Thank You from the Year 2 KW children

The Year 2 KW bubble have learned a poem to say a BIG thank you to all the inspirational people who have helped them during Lock down.

Golden Patrol and the Lost City of Gold

One of our Year 5 pupils has been busy writing his own novel during Lock down. Full of excitement and danger, twists and turns. Remember you read it here first!  Click on the image to get a full sized view and enjoy.

Team Oakwood! 6th-10th July

Take a look at the amazing work Team Oakwood have been up to this week!

Mrs Whitmarsh's Caterpillar (Butterfly!) diaries

We have butterflies!

The first one emerged yesterday, and today the final three have also come to meet us. It took a while for their wings to dry, and while we were waiting we put some orange segments and some sugar water (in place of nectar) in the net for them to have some food.

I am hoping the weather will be a little warmer and more settled tomorrow so that we can release them. Luckily, I have a few 'butterfly friendly' plants in my garden, so hopefully that will be a good place to let them go.

Oakwood's Learning! (29th June-3rd July)

It's been another fantastic week full of fun and hard work from Team Oakwood! Take a look at what's been going on. 

Mrs Whitmarsh's Caterpillar Diaries - Part 5

There has been movement!

Firstly, as the chrysalides have now hardened, we have moved them, as still attached to the pot lid, into the butterfly habitat (which is a small net container until they are released into the wild).

The strangest thing was that, as they were being moved, two of them started wriggling and bouncing around like they were dancing! I never realised that the changing caterpillars would be so active while they are transforming!
