We are all very excited about the progress of our caterpillars. They have eaten lots and lots of their food and have grown very big. They have now turned into chrysalises.

Lifecycles
We are learning about lifecycles. We have been making frogs with the play dough and have been making caterpillars. We have made frog puppets where we were learning how to use scissors. The children have also been listening to and enjoying the story of The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle. We are very excited as our caterpillars have arrived and we are going to closely monitor them as they grow and turn into butterflies.
Red Nose Day
On Thursday 14th March in the afternoon and Friday the 15th March in the morning the children and staff all came to nursery dressed in their pyjamas and onesies to raise money for Red Nose Day. The children were learning about contributing their time to bring about positive change in the wider community. The photographer from the Lothian Courier came to take our pictures and the children all had fun posing for the camera so look out for our photograph in the paper. All together we raised £80 for Comic Relief.  Well Done Knightsridge EYC.
Fairytales
We are learning about Fairytales. We have been reading and listening to Goldilocks and The Three Bears. Some of the children have enjoyed dressing up as the three bears and acting out the story. We are learning about size, talking about the bowls, the chairs and the beds. The children have been making bear puppets and are using shapes to make Goldilocks. We are also learning how to match using pictures from the story. The children have also been learning how to make their own sandwiches for snack.
