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!
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.
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.
The barins have loved learning all about different types of dinosaurs and making lovely wall displays with their artwork. We have also been learning about volcanos, and we did an experiment that looked like a real volcano. One of the barins took in a lava rock that was found in Shetland a long time ago, it was very interesting and everyone had lots of questions.
What a super morning we had at the beach. We found sea glass, shells and some nice stones to take back with us. We had some really good helpers that gathered up all the plastic rubbish and put it in a carrier bag to take with us and put in the bin when we got back to Nursery. We saw a seal and a fish jumping in the water!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from all the staff at the Whiteness Nursery x
We enjoyed looking at all the different pictures of the cartoon’s facial expressions and deciding how they were feeling and what zone they were in.
We found some puddles to splash in!
We had a morning of doing gym today. The children enjoyed practicing some skills with the balls. They all tried really hard at bouncing, kicking, catching and throwing the balls.
The children received some new toys this week. They have enjoyed playing with the new outdoor blocks and building things and using their imagination.
They also enjoyed using the toys that were gifted from toddlers. The tractor has been a big hit and the children have enjoyed sharing it.
