We were delighted to welcome everyone to our garden party on Tuesday.
The bairns were keen to help with the garden party prep and this started with baking some biscuits and cakes for our guests. There was lots of measuring, weighing, rolling and cutting to do so it was great to have so many willing helpers.
Then it was time to set up our stalls and make the garden ready for the party.
Let the fun and games commence! Following on from our garden party, the bairns have continued to discuss, build and include royal scenarios in their play.
It was lovely having families back at nursery. We’d love to know your favourite moment from the party.
We have been observing the lifecycle of a butterfly in the setting, the caterpillars arrived in the post and we watched them transform into chrysalis before opening up as beautiful butterflies revealing their brightly coloured wings, feeding them sugar syrup and fresh fruit. This week we set the butterflies free in the nursery garden and watched them flutter away, giving them a wave off for the final part of their lifecycle.
Super photos 😀 The garden party was brilliant, Jones is still speaking about the the games & the Queen! X
Wow what a wonderful day 😍 vexed i was working!
So lovely to see families being able to come into the setting again and enjoy such memorable experiences with the Bairns ☺️
Leon was asking me today if we can make a trap to catch a butterfly 🦋
We had such a lovely time at the party. The games were brilliant and wir peerie lass sang happy birthday to the queen the whole way home! Thank you for inviting us.
Lovely for the children to see caterpillars transforming into butterflies. Sure many are familiar with the Hungry Caterpillar story and this will bring it to life as well as teach them about nature. Thank you.
