Happy Birthday to Rae.

We hope you have a fantastic day.

Week Beginning the 5th September

This week, our story is The Three Little Pigs. The children have engaged in lots of activities creating their own houses and re-telling the stories.

They have enjoyed taking turns as the big bad wolf!

Week beginning 12th September

This week the children have been creating patterns using a wide range of media.

We have also looked at patterns they can see in their environment. Can you see any patterns while out on a walk?

Week Beginning 19th September

This week the children have been exploring colour using  the syringes in the water tray and rolling items through paint on the slide. The children have enjoyed discovering all the different colours they could make.

Happy Birthday to April.

We hope you have a fantastic day.

We have had another amazing week in nursery, including meeting some new friends. We have been very busy outside and inside. Here is just a snapshot of our week:

It has been wonderful to see all of our new preschool children back after the summer break.  This week we have been exploring the new lay out of the nursery and getting back into our routine.

We are very excited about the garden extension and have been enjoying the space.
