Outdoor learning at Dunure Beach

The nursery enjoyed a visit to Dunure beach with our parents for our last stay and play day. The children enjoyed exploring the beach looking for driftwood, shells, pebbles and anything else they found that they could make a picture with.  we all enjoyed snack down at the harbour before heading to the park for a little play. the children enjoyed making pictures on the grass with the items they collected.

Role play!!!!

There’s been a big fire in Nursery today!!!! Burns cottage went on fire and needs a new roof, we got the call early this morning at the station, and had to draw  a map of where to go. Luckily we got there on time and managed to put the fire out with the hoses and water packs.

Breakfast with Santa

The boys and girls in our Early Years Centre had a great time at Dobbies today. We enjoyed a fully cooked breakfast with lots of laughter from Santa’s elves, before meeting Santa and Mrs Claus! There were lots of party games. dancing and high fives as well as all of us getting a special present from Santa.

Gingerbread House

The children in the nursery have been busy making a gingerbread house to play in, we decorated the roof with glitter, and made some red white and green candy canes.  We made a cosy fire with fairy lights and cellophane and decorated the house with tinsel. The children enjoy reading stories to each other

Nursery recently went a visit to Alloway Library, we had such an exciting time! The boys and girls had to ask the driver for the tickets…and pay for them, then we had to tell the driver when to stop by pressing the button on the bus. We had a quick look in the windows of Burns Cottage before a Policeman stopped in his car to talk to us. He showed us the lights on the police car. In the library we got to choose books for nursery, and have a story and snack before walking back to the bus stop. At the bus stop we posted our letters to Santa, and waited for the bus back to Nursey.

Outdoor Learning

 

The children enjoyed a visit to Belleisle for our Outdoor Learning, Joanne the Park Ranger showed the children signs of Autumn and some animals that like to hibernate. Joanne helped us to make a hedgehog house, before we went on an Autumn scavenger hunt! To finish we made lovely crowns with the leaves we found.
