Hello October

Autumn has now officially arrived…and the weather is definitely a bit more chilly!

We have welcomed some new friends to the green group, and we hope to have lots of fun together at Cross Arthurlie.

It’s been business as usual at Cross Arthurlie and we have been very busy exploring the different areas of our nursery environment.

When exploring the outdoors the children assess their own risk when using the large play equipment.

They have also been exploring cause and effect when pouring and filling with the water, and using the waterfall to see how the water moves. “We’ve made a river!”

As a nursery we celebrate Halloween for the full week, with lots of different experiences on offer. We love to see all the amazing costumes throughout the week.

 

At Nurture we have been exploring symmetry, finishing the Halloween pictures. We used the mirrors to see the symmetrical reflection of each picture.

During our gym hall sessions we have been lucky to have some helpers from the High School. They have been teaching us some new games to help us keep fit!

September

The trees are starting to change colour and the weather is becoming colder, it must be September. Some of the green groups parents/carers came to our first stay and play session of the year. We hope you had a wonderful time visiting the nursery. Keep an eye on the notice board for future days to visit.

 

   

   

We have welcomed more new friends to the green group. We hope you have lots of fun at Cross Arthurlie Nursery.

We continue to celebrate success in Cross Arthurlie Nursery…well done everyone…what a fantastic achievement.

It’s Maths Week this week! We have been exploring  number, size and pattern.

We have continued with our gym sessions and we are looking at how to keep ourselves safe when moving around the school and using different spaces within the school.

*Grown ups…ask us some of the rules we follow when using the gym hall*

Thanks for a fun filled September Groovy Green group.

It has been so lovely to see everyone again back at nursery. It sounds like all our friends had a great time over the summer holidays.

We have some new friends at Cross Arthurlie and we know we’re going to have lots of fun learning together.

Here is a snap shot of the first few weeks back…

Just a gentle reminder of some important nursery information –

  • A Monday is our main day for access to the gym hall, please ensure appropriate footwear is worn on this day and earrings are removed.
  • Please pack spare clothes in bags in case of accidents and/or wet and muddy play.
  • If possible please provide a pair of wellies for outdoor play.
  • During the warm weather please apply sun cream  prior to attending nursery and a labelled bottle of sun cream is provided for the staff to then top up in the afternoon.
