# Welcome back Maple class!

  ![Image of Welcome back Maple class!](https://files.schudio.com/astley-park-school/images/blog/IMG_4959.jpeg)  8 January 2026   [Miss Brown](https://www.astleypark.lancs.sch.uk/blog/author/browne)   [Maple](https://www.astleypark.lancs.sch.uk/blog/category/maple)

We have had a lovely first week back from the Christmas break, and they have settled back in brilliantly. We have been exploring different animals through sensory stories, sensology and attention autism. We have been getting creative as a class, using our handprints to make one big lion’s mane! Great teamwork everyone. We have enjoyed exploring the different textures of animals, from fluffy to smooth to soft and also what sound each animal makes.
Well done Maple class for such a brilliant first week back, we are so proud of you!
