New Routines

As part of nurture this year we are aiming to create consistency. We have introduced a toast and social time first thing in the morning before we complete our morning starter job to practice some important skills. For example, ordering days of the week, completing the alphabet and forming our numbers.

Dean Park Outdoor Provision

We’re Back!

We have had a successful few trips back to the Dean Park to work with the Park Rangers and Sarah.

We started by investigating around the park for signs of Autumn coming and became Worm Detectives by creating vibrations that brought the worms to the surface. We are able to carefully study their shapes, sizes and if they were male or female. Some of us were super brave and held a few. We then returned them to a safe place in the park.
