Reception have been making staircase patterns & recognising that each step is 1 more than the last. Today, they played a game where they took it in turns to hide a step from their staircase, with their partner having to guess which step was missing. @stchris_trust pic.twitter.com/xTHV6Fywal— St. Sidwell's C of E (@stsidwellsce) January 15, 2026

In science, Year 2 worked in teams to test how reflective different materials are. With their results, they were able to find the most suitable material for a cyclist’s reflective jacket. They thought carefully about how to ensure a fair test & recorded their results together!— St. Sidwell's C of E (@stsidwellsce) Jan 13, 2026
