Mike is going to miss you so much but you can come back and visit him in his new class next year. Bye everyone x |
Tuesday 23rd June
For Well-Being Week Mike is practising some mindfulness today. He is enjoying nature. He is in the garden smelling the flowers. They smell so lovely and sweet. Mike loves the bright colours too. They make the garden look beautiful. Why don't you go smell some flowers in your garden today? |
Friday 19th June
Mike has just landed back home from his amazing school tour. He saw so many cool animals and learned so many interesting new facts. Did you know giraffes sleep standing up? Or that elephants are the only animals that can't jump?! He is absolutely exhausted now! I think he's going to have a nice long lie-in. Have a lovely weekend everyone :) |
Thursday 18th June
Mike travelled all the way down under to Australia (again!). He went to visit Australia Zoo with Robert Irwin. Mike saw lots of cool Australian animals like koalas, macaws and kangaroos. He even made a new friend, Croc! He also learned that millions of years ago crocodiles were so big that they used to eat dinosaurs!! What amazing facts did you learn? |
Wednesday 17th June
Mike is off on his second school tour this week. How lucky is he?! Where do you think he is off to this time? If you look closely you might see something that gives you a little clue. Mike visited here last summer too. He must get on a plane and fly all the way across the world. I wonder what he's going see... Stay tuned! |

Tuesday 5th May
Hi everyone. I hope you all had a nice bank holiday weekend. Mike is doing some painting today with watercolour paints like we did in school. He used lots of different colours and even made new colours by mixing paints together. Does anyone know what colour you get when you mix blue and red? |
Friday 1st May
Mike is getting ready for his walk today in his new runners. He's trying really hard to learn how to tie his laces. It can be a little bit tricky. Mike goes for a walk every day and listens to his music. His favourite song is the Go Bananas Song. What's your favourite song? |
Tuesday 28th April

It's called Connect Four.
The first player to get four of their counters
in a row wins!

Friday 24th April
Mike is taking a break from painting today and playing a bit of hurling instead. Mike really misses training but he's still keeping his eye in. He's doing really well. He's only broken one window so far!!! I think I should sign him up to play for Dicksboro.. what do you think? Have a nice weekend everyone :) |
Thursday 23rd April
Mike has been recruited today to help with some painting! He doesn't mind helping though because he likes being outside in the nice weather. He must put on old clothes so he doesn't get destroyed in paint. What do you think he might be painting? I'll give you a clue, it's in the back garden. |
Thursday 19th March
Today Mike is doing his exercises to keep fit while
his training is off. It is very important to keep active.
He wants to win another county final for Dicksboro
this year!!
To cool down, Mike did lots of stretches on his
exercise mat. What exercise can you do today?
