As our centre was recently successful in obtaining Carrick Futures funding, we were fortunate enough to be able to arrange a series of visits for all of our children to Culzean Estate with Adventure Centre for Education (ACE).
Our children, along with some parents and carers, have enjoyed exploring the outdoor environment. ACE have planned lots of fun games and activities for us such a treasure hunts, bug hunts and nature walks.
You can see from the photos how much fun we are having!
The children from the Ladybird room enjoyed a visit to the beach on Tuesday. They made sand angels, built sandcastles and had lots of fun splashing in the water. The sun even shone for them!
We have a fabulous new outdoor area and have enjoyed exploring all our lovely new toys and equipment. Â We put on our nursery wellies and take our learning outdoors, keeping us active while we have lots of fun!!
The staff and children from the Ladybird Room have planted some beautiful flowers in their new planters.
While outdoors, a group of children from the the Sunshine Room noticed that the flowers were attracting lots of bees. They watched them very closely and made a video of the bees collecting nectar to show all of the other children in the playroom.
Layla – “the bees suck all the nectar out of the flowers and then make it into honey”
Jay – “there’s lots of bees all over the flowers”
Dexter – “buzzy buzzy bees”
On Wednesday 3rd June all of our children, from all 3 playrooms, visited Girvan Beach to pick up litter and help to keep our local community clean and tidy. Mums, dads, carers, family and friends came along to help and everyone worked hard to make this a huge success.
Thank you to our boys and girls and all our helpers!
