Spring and Easter

We have been learning about Spring and Easter. We painted lovely spring flowers and made them into a display. We have made pictures with our fingerprints which are on display in the nursery entrance. We have been learning about the Easter story at small group time and have made Easter cards and decorated easter pictures. As a treat we had Hot Cross Buns for snack. The children have enjoyed reading Easter stories and had fun with the interactive Easter display. Below is a link to the Easter Story we watched in nursery.

Just a wee reminder that all children return to nursery on Monday 15th April

Happy Easter from all the staff at Knightsridge EYC

Chinese New Year

We have been learning about Chinese New Year. We have made Chinese Dragons from paper plates and crepe paper. We copied Chinese writing using red paper and black paint. We decorated red paper with gold items and then learned how to fold them into fans. These were then made into a lovely Chinese New Year display. On Thursday for snack we tasted Chinese noodles and prawn crackers for snack. The children have also had fun setting up a Chinese Restaurant and engaging in role play.

Nativity Rehearsals

We have been very busy in nursery this week practicing for our nativity.
