We were delighted to welcome the bairns back this week after our October break.  It was an exciting first morning with a trip to Lerwick on the service bus to see Paper Moon, an interactive adventure show featuring Poppy and her dog Peppy.  We meet Poppy and Peppy and find out they love all things space.  Poppy dozes off under the bright light of the moon.  This is just the start of the adventure.  Suddenly, Poppy wakes up to discover that MoonMoo (the cow that jumped over the moon) has got stuck on the Moon! Poppy and Peppy begun their mission to rescue MoonMoo and with the help of the bairns they walked on the moon, fought off a meteorite and found MoonMoo.  After the show we went on a quick walk which took us around the water’s edge at North Ness.  The bairns were curious to find out what was inside the big red squares on the wall.  We had a look and found life rings showing the words Lerwick Harbour.  We spoke about how these could be used to help rescue someone who had fallen into the sea by helping them float and be pulled back to shore.

The bairns have been engaged in various fine motor activities this week.  This has also involved imaginary play in the small world area and playdough station.

Childsmile visited this week and the bairns brushed their teeth following the directions.

The bairns have settled back into the nursery routines which has supported their play.  We’ve noticed how much collaborative play has taken place this week already.  The bairns have discussed the best way to include their friends, how they want to continue their imaginative play and worked together to build.
