Nursery life continues to be very busy and we can’t quite believe it’s THAT time of year already!

Outdoor learning:

The children have decorated a beautiful living Christmas tree for the garden.  Every day the add and remove all the decorations according to their choice.  The discussions we overhear are often telling their friends about their own tree in their home, describing the decorations and of course, leading onto what they hope Santa might bring!

Christmas:

We have been getting ready for our Christmas Concert, which takes place on Friday 14 December.  We have been creating props for the stage, such as 2 giant Christmas trees and a huge poster wishing everyone “Happy Christmas”. One child who is interested in writing letters and copying environmental print, has created a sign for the back of the stage. She and her friends put the finishing touches to it this afternoon.  She was very happy with her work!

Visit to the Community Centre:

The whole nursery had the opportunity to visit the Community Centre during the week, to see a puppet show and to visit Santa’s Grotto.   Everyone who visited was lucky enough to receive a little present from Santa, just to keep us going until the ‘big day’!
