We were busy last week, our learning was linked to the theme of space. Thank you to everyone who collected the boxes which we used to make our space rockets.We are busy creating and designing our ‘space bus’ which the children are enjoying making. We have talked about the astronaut Tim Peake and learned some new space counting rhymes.

Jessica and Sandy helped Kathleen to bake star shortbread biscuits which we enjoyed for our snack.

At gym we were bouncing and catching small balls. We played a game of sticky aliens when we had to rescue our friends who were stuck in the alien’s slime. We also played ‘dodge the planet’.

At the Woodies on Wednesday, along with our friends from the butterflies nursery, lots of children made bird feeders using Cheerios and pipe cleaners. We are going to investigate other ways of feeding the birds during the cold months. We have also signed up to take part in the RSPB ‘Big Garden Watch’ at the end of January. We will be learning to identify some common garden birds before then.
