Play Talk Read bus
Families in the birth to three building had a fantastic time exploring the sensory bus.
Here we are using all our senses to explore together. We also listened to “shark in the park” story and sang some familiar songs and rhymes. We are all looking forward to some messy play on the bus next week.
Early Level Learning Environment
The children have been very busy exploring the learning environment both indoors out. We have all been having lots of fun climbing, sliding and investigating our new Treetop Lodge climbing Frame.
We have also welcomed our new children into the early level playroom and all are settling in very well.
