We’ve had another lovely week at nursery, packed full of fun, creativity and plenty of opportunities to learn through play.

The bairns enjoyed PE again on Tuesday, it’s great to see everyone joining in and developing their physical skills while having lots of fun.

We also had a delicious science experiment in the kitchen on Wednesday, with the return of Betty – our sourdough starter! The bairns enjoyed measuring and mixing the ingredients together to make pancakes, whilst talking about how tiny living organisms in the sourdough create bubbles and give our pancake mixture a yummy texture and flavour. We nearly used all of Betty up so we made sure to feed her again so that she is ready for our next baking session!

Our water tray has been a very popular area for exploration this week. The bairns experimented with mixing different colours together, watching as the colours changed and new ones appeared.

Various arts and crafts activities have been on the go this week, with several of the bairns keen to help create the colour monster display. They have done a fantastic job and we are excited to see the finished result.

There has also been plenty of construction and imaginative play this week. Using our building blocks, the bairns have worked together to build houses, ferries, towers and all sorts of structures. We’ve seen problem solving, teamwork and creativity as they experimented with balance, size and shape.

An all-round busy and happy week!
