We have had very busy outdoor week this week. Following on from our interest in building last week we started using real tools this week. We have been carefully using hammers and nails to ‘fix’ items in the garden. Many of the children have requested that we get more tools and we are currently looking into this.
You could extend this at home by getting your child to help you fix items around the house.
Please note: as we are now uploading observations onto your child’s personal profile (Interactive learning diary) we will be doing slightly less blog updates. Please see your child’s tray for your login for the Interactive learning diary. Returning parents: your log ins from last year should still work. Please let me know if they don’t.
Next time you are in the garden make sure you have a look at the fantastic dens some of the afternoon boys have been working on over the last few days. They have been using sticks, rope and hammers to build their den. They made a fire using stones and kept themselves safe by wearing high vis vests and helmets.
They worked hard as team and had to solve problems and persevere when the den kept collapsing. Well done boys!
We plan to build on this indoors using natural materials in our construction area.
The forest session WILL go ahead today. Rain is forecast this morning so please bring a waterproof jacket. We look forward to seeing you at the nursery gate at 9.45 (am children) and 1.45 (pm session). 🙂
The afternoon boys and girls have settled back into the nursery routine with confidence! They had great fun in the garden today and were very busy in their play. They enjoyed having snack in the garden and visiting the library.
