What a busy week we have had!

We have welcomed new children into the nursery and also new staff!

The new children have made a great start and are  getting to grips with nursery routines. They have been exploring the playroom and garden finding plenty to interest them, resources to stimulate their curiosity, inquiry and imagination. Great!

The new staff are settling in well too! Adam has joined us  as nursery nurse and key worker for the orange group Diana as pupil support worker in the afternoons. Jemma has returned to work in the afternoons as nursery nurse and key worker for the green group(p.m.)

We now have a silver achievement tree in the nursery. This provides an opportunity for children with their parent/carer to share something special that they have done at home. It could be anything that they feel especially proud of. Just write or draw it on a paper leaf with the date and and their name and attach it to the tree.

The children have enjoyed the mud and puddles outside this week and have been investigating how to use the new water system, finding ways to transport and pour water.

The junk modelling has been busy with children creating imaginative and complex models, several bringing in boxes and packets from home with ideas as to how they want to use them.

There has been a lot of cooperative  play in the construction area where children have worked together to create structures that support their imaginative play ideas.
