Emily’s family is delighted with her recent award:
“We are extremely proud of how well Emily is progressing in nursery and are over the moon to see she got a certificate for her manners”
Emily thoroughly deserved her award for her delightful manners. Well done Emily! Everyone is very proud of you.
Friday gymnastics continues this term and the children are now showing increasing confidence in their skills. This group was working on balancing which can be challenging for some but all the children showed themselves to be confident individuals by ‘having a go’ under the guidance of adults. It’s great to see the children confident in the wider school environment too as some can find this initially daunting.
Alex’s family is pleased to see the photo of him with his certificate and left us a comment:
“Alex is very proud of his certificate!”
You certainly deserve that certificate Alex and we are all proud of you too.
This little group of children enjoyed getting into the spirit of Pancake Day earlier this week. We imagine that it was a little messier than they are used to experiencing at home but they certainly had great fun creating their own pancakes.

Just like the Raindrop Room, a group of children in the Rainbow Room recently developed their skills by making a Swiss roll. They showed great listening, concentration and fine motor skills, as well as developing their learning in Sciences and Technologies, producing a super cake for their efforts.
Huge congratulations go to our most recent award winners. We hope that you are very proud of your certificates which were thoroughly deserved.
Developing fine motor control plays an important role in the children’s activities in Nursery so, as part of their focus on Chinese New Year, some of them tried out their skills at copying some Chinese writing and numbers using both paint and pens. They showed great enthusiasm and concentration, producing some super work.

This group in the Raindrop Room recently developed their baking skills by making a Swiss roll. As you can see, a lot of care was required, for example when cracking eggs, weighing ingredients and using the food mixer, but they proved themselves to be ready for the challenge and produced a wonderful, tasty end product.
Staff and residents at Lydiafield Care Home made a group of our children very welcome when we went on a return visit on Valentine’s Day. We felt so proud of our children as they chatted to the residents who were delighted to receive their gifts of roses, shortbread hearts and little craft hearts that they had made themselves. We hope that the ladies and gentlemen of Lydiafield enjoyed the visit as much as we did. Thank you very much for inviting us. We hope to see you again soon.

Confidence in the kitchen is growing in our children as they increasingly prepare foods and enjoy baking which provides great opportunities to develop their skills in Numeracy and Mathematics as well as Sciences and Technologies. This little group recently made chocolate cornflake cakes, showing great independence and responsibility.
