A super morning out at the polytunnel! We took out a drum of water and got pots and pans from the polytunnel. The barins used a pallet of wood for the table and found some chairs so they could sit in at the café.

Beach
We enjoyed a trip to the beach this morning, the weather was lovely. The children enjoyed finding bits of sea glass, broken pottery and seeing how far they could throw the stones into the water.
A busy Monday morning
A busy Monday morning! We made some pink play-dough with Mrs Gilfillan, and enjoyed getting out for a run around at the grassy bit in the Strom road. We played catchy games and enjoyed looking for sticks in amongst all the grass. When we got back, we played with the giant floor puzzle out in the courtyard. It’s good to get outside after such a windy and rainy weekend!
Library
We had so much fun at the library today. It’s been so long since we all went. The children enjoyed seeing all the different books, flicking through the pages and hearing the different stories.
Castle fun
The nursery was kindly gifted this castle.
The children are enjoying learning about fairytales and reading fairytale books. They really enjoyed making this castle too.
Water play.
We all enjoyed the water tray today. We enjoyed asking lots of questions about the different type of jugs and materials. They loved to pour water into different sized jugs and watch the water overflow.
Our community
The children have enjoyed creating ‘Our Community’ wall display. We found pictures of different places in Whiteness and Weisdale. The children have enjoyed putting their own houses, sheeps and trees onto the map as well. They created the grass by doing feet and hand printing. They then created the sky by using sponges. They had so much fun doing this.
Outdoor play
What a lovely few mornings we’ve had being able to get outside. We loved the beach on Tuesday and found lots of sea glass to bring back to Nursery. Today we went out to the polytunnel and especially enjoyed jumping in the muddy puddles that were a bit frosty from the ice.
Happy Valentines Day!
Today we enjoyed doing Valentines Day crafts, learning how to play card games like SNAP!, building boats and little houses from the blocks and playing with the African animals. We got outside for a lovely walk after snack time too.
