Good Morning once again Ravensbury!
Time really is flying. We are over half way through our wild month enjoying our time learning about and enjoying nature.
Today’s challenge is about sticks! Your challenge is to find a stick. What can you pretend your stick is? Will it be a wand? Can you turn it into a pencil and write in the mud with it? Let your imagination GO WILD!
Have a fun filled day

Hope today will be a Wild Wednesday Ravensbury! I bet the ducks enjoyed yesterday’s weather. It was tremendous to watch!
Today’s challenge is to see if you can race to find the colours of the rainbow before you get wet in the rain! Maybe you’ll find an orange flower and green grass? These are the colours you are looking for and remember to send in your photos:
violet indigo blue green yellow orange red
If you see a rainbow send in a photo too.
Have a Wonderful Wednesday

Yesterday I discovered that a squirrel’s front teeth never stop growing. Squirrels must gnaw to keep their teeth at the right length. What did you find out?
I also hear this beautiful birdsong every night at tea time. Does anyone know what bird is singing?

Happy Tuesday Ravensbury!
I hope you are well and you managed to get out yesterday before the thunderstorms. It’s a bit cooler today but hopefully we’ll have some sunshine later.
You can see my butterfly buffet challenge at the bottom. The butterflies didn’t come but there were a couple of visitors and this morning half of the peach I put out had gone! I wonder who enjoyed it. What do you think?
Today your challenge is to go outside, find some wildlife and then google facts about them. What’s the most interesting fact you can find? Write down your answers and send a photo or send a short video in telling us what you’ve discovered about our wild friends outside.
Have a terrific Tuesday

Good morning Ravensbury!
Welcome to week 3 of our Summer Term and the beginning of our third week going wild. Did you manage to find something wild over the weekend?
I went to our local woods with my family and I hugged a tree. It made me smile, as you can see in the photo. Send in your photos if anything you got up to over the weekend.
Today we are going to help our fluttery friends by giving them a treat. See what visits your garden when you put out a sugary buffet for the wildlife. I'm hoping I get some butterflies.

Hello again!
I wonder who will go wild today to find their nearest tree. Will there be a mass of Y5 wildlife wardens invading Clayton green spaces to hug a tree or will it be Year 2 that aces this challenge? I look forward to finding out.
I’m going to look for a really old tree. Make up your own challenges over the weekend and discover what is outside your door then send the photos in to me.

Good morning Ravensbury!
If you’re wild enough to accept the challenge then here is what you can do today.
Channel your inner Captain Jack Sparrow or Captain Pugwash (ask your parents and grandparents who this is) to find a hoard of treasure on your latest walk on the wild side. Collect anything you find and keep it in a treasure box. Remember to wash your hands when you come home.
Bonus joke of the day:
Why are pirates called pirates?

Hello Wild Things!
Today is all about being blue. NOT feeling blue (that means feeling sad) but looking for blue in the wild. Can you take photos or draw all of the blue things you see outdoors today?
Enjoy your wonders of the wild outdoors today

Our latest ‘Wonderful Wildlife Wardens’ have sent in photos of themselves throwing their litter away, bird spotting and using their art skills to create very realistic representations of wildlife. I’m really impressed with what they are discovering in their wild outdoors. Thank you for joining in.
By the way – so far The Foundation Stage are wildest of our school (FIST PUMPS AIR!) They’re wilder than KS2 who are wilder than KS1.
Challenge on for those of you who haven’t sent in photos yet…

9th June 30 Days Wild - Challenge 9
Good morning,
Today sees a challenge that we should do every day. Litter is a big problem for wildlife. It can hurt them and so I’d like to see if you can pick up litter to make your area tidy and safe for the animals that live close to us.
- DO NOT pick up anything that could hurt you.
- ALWAYS do this activity with an adult.
- WEAR protective gloves if you have any.
- USE a litter picker if you can.
Send me your litter picking photos in to:
nurseryhomelearning@ravensbury.manchester.sch.uk
Have a great day
From Mrs Ganner
Daily Update:
We’ve had some amazing photos in from children in the Foundation Stage. Look at how happy they are looking after the wildlife they have found. They are being really careful too. Read what they say about their learning:
‘We have been out in the parks and garden looking for wild life. We saw some ducks with babies and a spider in the garden. We also have 3 snails which we look after and feed them every day.’
‘This is my friend the worm. I have been watering it and feeding it. Worms don't have any legs because they wiggle.’
You really are ‘Wonderful Wildlife Wardens’

Good morning Ravensbury,
I hope your weekend was wild and wonderful. If you have an photos of you and your family finding wildlife in your garden, on the vale or at the park send your photos in so we can share them on our blog.
It’s the start of our second week going wild at school and we have one of my favourite activities
I love to sit in my garden recording the birds talking to each other first thing in the morning. They have so much to say to each other!
Can you hear the magpie chattering away loudly?

Watch the video to identify bird song in your garden.

Well done to Honour and Jola for finding this fabulous centipede! It’s safely back outside now. Well done for ‘Going Wild’!
If any of you want a wild weekend then here are two more challenges:
Challenge 1: How do I know it’s a centipede and not a millipede? CLUE: The answer is NOT to do with the number of legs it has.
Challenge 2: Bugs shouldn’t be living in your house so why not make them a hotel in your garden? Stack wood and tubes and crates to make a bug hotel this weekend. Then watch them set up home in all the nooks and crannies. Bugtastic!
Send your answers to my home learning address:
nurseryhomelearning@ravensbury.manchester.sch.uk
Have a brilliant weekend! Keep those eyes peeled for lots of bugs

Good Morning Ravensbury,
It’s the end of our first wild week. I’ve spoken to a few of your grownups about what they have seen and done this week. Did anybody find a minibeast in their house yesterday? Send in photos of your minibeast encounters so we can put them on the blog. Here’s today’s challenge:
Whatever WILD THINGS you see today write down a list and send a photo of what is in your local park or back yard or garden. Let’s work out what kinds of wildlife are living in and around Clayton.
Send your photos or short videos in and I'll put them up on our school blog

Good Morning Ravensbury,
I hope you managed to get out in the WILD yesterday! Send in your splashing photos so we can share the fun. Here’s today’s challenge:
When it gets cold and wet outside, sometimes the wild likes to come inside! If you find a minibeast friend, help them find their way home by carefully scooping them up and putting them outside.
Send your photos or short videos in and I'll put them up on our school blog
