We constructed a snow castle using a washing bowl, small and large cones and crates.
“We can fill up the cones to make towers”
“Let’s make a giant one with this one”
“We are making a snow castle”
“Look, I can make a pattern with this spoon…and this tennis racquet”
We had great fun discovering the potential of slime!
“We put food colouring in it and glue and water and then it turned into slime but the pink one didn’t work so we had to start again.”
“I skipped it, it went really long” (It stretched so long we could actually skip with it!)
“I twirl it”
We have been experimenting with the trajectory of water.
Early physics!
Busby Nursery entered The Busby and Clarkston Annual Flower Show. We were delighted to receive Second prize for making a fruit and vegetable animal. We used potatoes, raisins, apples, pens and sticks. For our third prize we gathered wild flowers from our field and pressed them in books and then mounted them on card.
We have been removing weeds, breaking down the soil and planting some plants, such as herbs, begonias and geraniums.
We have been working together to make a zip slide with rope and Nursery equipment. We have also been working out how to make a see saw from a plank of wood and a tree stump.
We discussed solutions. 
Watering the plants in the hanging garden.
Nursery and primary are working together to clear our field of litter. Excellent work everyone!
Thanks very much to all parents who came along to our information evening last Tuesday, May 2nd. This session shared details of 3 of our current initiatives, Skills Academy, Muddy Movers and Play Academy. For those who couldn’t make it, the attached Powerpoint file tells you a little about Muddy Movers, which is a programme of Physical activities designed to advance children’s physical skills and emotional resilience.
Thank you to everyone who came to our Autumn Assembly on Wednesday. The children did extremely well, thank you for all your help and support.
