We have had a lovely week here at Newport nursery, lots of sunshine and good times. Here is a sneak peek at what we have been up to…..
We have been making the most of the nice weather outside. Children have been exploring their different skills through a range of activities and resources.
Children have been interested in tennis this week. Sharing and taking turns as they try to see how many rally’s they can get. Archie and Miss McKenzie managed to get 6 hits back and forward which is their record. Cammy has been practising himself as he sees how far he can hit it before running to catch it. Gregor and Lachlan have had lots of laughter together as they try and hit the ball to one another and racing to see who can get to it first.
Children have been using the blocks and loose parts to build structures and bring their ideas to life as they make houses, caravans and sun loungers. Children also made bridges and worked out how they could balance the blocks so they wouldn’t fall when cars went across it. Children extended and lead their own learning by sourcing more resources to further develop their ideas.
A group of children built heir own pizza shop where they made pizzas to order by request and used the loose parts as toppings and the bats to use as the bases to go in the oven.
Children created friendships through interests in stories. Jackson and Gregor were looking at the books outside in the story den as they shared their favourite pages.
Children inside have been sharing their creative skills as they make models and pictures using the junk modelling resources. They all came up with their own ideas and and completed these with very little support.
Children have been showcasing their number skills as they order numbers 1-10 then back from 10-1 and identify the missing number when it is taken away. Children also matched the quantity to the number.
Reminders:
- Forest is starting back again next week on Tuesday 30th April. We will meet in the Waterstone Crook car park next to the leisure centre from 9-9:15 then walk up to the forest location. If you aren’t going to be in please can you send us a message on seesaw and phone the office to let them know also.
- Any toys from nursery specifically toy cars that have been taken home by mistake, can we please ask that these are returned, thank you.
- Can we please ask that your child has a jacket with them to nursery as the weather could turn at any minute!
Have a great weekend, see you next week!
