Down at the nursery they have been looking at growing. For part of that they have been talking teddies home with them and learning how to brush their teeth and tuck them into their beds and how to get them ready for going to nursery. Moira Auchnie, the health Visitor came in to talk to the children about looking after young babies. The nursery pupils were asked to bring in a picture of them as a baby to see how have changed and grown up. They have also been looking at how to measure themselves and also how to use themselves to measure things outside and inside.
Outside in the nursery garden they have been able to experience looking after babies, washing clothes, hanging them out to dry, cooking meals and serving them up.

Down in the nursey they had a visiter called Mr. Mole. He came from the woods and the nursery tried to get Mr Mole to go back to the woods by leading a carrot trail. Mr. Mole couldnt follow the trail back because birds had ate it, So then they made a chalk trail, However it disappeared too, So the nursery took him to the nursery garden and are building a little house for him to live and play in . They were very excited when they found the mole in the garden because they like having visitors in their classroom and in their garden. They are excited about how Mr Mole is getting to stay in the nursery with them.
