This week has been World Nursery Rhyme Week and we have enjoyed taking part in games and activities as well as learning and revisiting this years focus rhymes. The Magical Rhyming Tray also made an appearance building their knowledge of the sounds within words and rhyme.
At our music session with Mrs Garrick the christmas show preparations have gone up a notch and the instrumentalists have been learning their parts.
The soft play equipment is always a temptation for the bairns while at the village club for music so we stayed down for a play.
On our way to visit the Salvation Army polycrub this week, we discussed the size and speed of the cars and how we could remember the distance between the nursery and the polycrub. We spoke to the new pygmy goats and the noisy cows in the shed. The bairns planted their own strawberry plant, making sure to give it some water before taking it back to nursery to take home. Then it was on to planting spinach by loosening the soil, making a hole and placing the seedlings inside.
We were very lucky to be able to offer a placement as part of the ‘Modern Apprentice for a Day’ programme. The bairns took full charge of showing them around the setting and introducing everyone.
It was so great to see so many of our families at the pasta and pizza night. Thank you all for coming out to have your tea with us!
Children in Need. We joined the school for an assembly and had some Pudsey fun and games!
