Monday<\/p>\n

Today started off busy with some arty mark making in the messy area.
\nWe used rollers with patterns to create bright pictures.<\/p>\n

Outside we were using natural materials we found in the garden to paint nature pictures. We used sticks and leaves and mud!
\nDefinitely a mark making kinda day \u263a\ufe0f<\/p>\n

We also had a visit from a child who going to join our nursery soon, lots of us introduced ourselves and helped to make her welcome by showing her and Daddy around the nursery before asking her to join our games. We can\u2019t wait for our new friends to start!<\/p>\n

Tuesday<\/p>\n

Beach Day! Today group 2 went to the beach with Miss Webster, Miss Higgins and Mrs Wright. Lots of climbing and exploring the shoreline.<\/p>\n

Together time we did something a little different today. We used our imagination to see \u201cflowers in our mind\u201d. Next Mrs Adamson read a story which didn\u2019t have any pictures, so we had to imagine the pictures in our minds instead!<\/p>\n

\"\"\u00a0\"\" \"\"<\/p>\n

Some of us found the box our fruit delivery came in and we played with it in different areas of the nursery, including outside, block area, and lastly the art area. We used it to support role play before decorating it for another day.\"\"<\/p>\n

Wednesday:<\/p>\n

Today we made finger puppets in the messy area. We all chose different characters to make and talked about how we could make the puppets look like the characters.<\/p>\n

The sun was shining today so lots of outdoor play with the puppets, bikes, dinosaurs and the large climbing cubes. Some of us were re-enacting The Three Billy Goats Gruff.<\/p>\n

Mrs Murphy and the children checked on last week\u2019s science experiment with the coloured flowers, we decided the blue worked best. We all explained to Mrs Murphy what we had done and why it happened.<\/p>\n

At Together Time we had a special treat! We had Harry from the primary school come to read us his very own story book! We loved listening to our very own author \ud83d\ude0a all about \u201cSuper Me, Gluten Free\u201d.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Thursday:<\/p>\n

Gym Day! Today Mrs Murphy and Mrs Wright brought out lots of exciting large gym equipment for us to practice our balance and gross motor skills.<\/p>\n

\"\" \"\"
\nAgain it was another beautiful sunny day so we spent most of it out in the garden, making \u201cdino soup\u201d and riding horses around the garden.<\/p>\n

We even got our Together Time outside with stories and songs and fun in the sun!<\/p>\n

Friday:<\/p>\n

Again this week some of us went to PEEP with Mrs Murphy and Mrs Adamson before joining everyone back at nursery.<\/p>\n

One or two of us wanted to make paper flowers in the art area, inspired by one of our friends bringing a beautiful tulip. We used some spring colours to make the petals.<\/p>\n

Another beautiful day meant we spent most of it outside in the sunshine.<\/p>\n

We made play dough outside, adding herbs and leaves to make it smell lovely \u263a\ufe0f<\/p>\n

Next we learned some new songs at Together Time and read a funny story about an alligator with false teeth!<\/p>\n

After lunch it was back out to enjoy playing in the sunshine.<\/p>\n

Phew! Another busy we at nursery HQ!<\/p>\n

See you next week,<\/p>\n
