Safari fever has reached Bathgate West Nursery this week as we prepare for our summer trip to Blair Drummond Safari Park in a few weeks time. We have been learning about some of the animals that we will see when were are at the Safari Park. The AM and PM Green Groups each chose an animal they wanted to research more about. They used information books and the internet to find out some interesting facts. Then they shared their learning with the other boys and girls. They are now looking forward to seeing what the other groups have been discovering about Safari animals. Throughout the nursery we have been looking closely at all of the amazing animal prints and created some of our own and we have been enjoying drawing and painting our own animals as well as talking about what we are hoping to see when we go to the Safari park. Take a look at some of our work.

In other news…. our caterpillars are all tucked up nicely sleeping in their cocoons and we are eagerly awaiting their transformation in beautiful butterflies!

It’s been a very busy week, as this week we have also been gearing up for the Newland’s Day Procession, so hopefully we will see all of you Super Heroes tomorrow. Remember bring your capes, smiles and loudest singing voices …     Hip, Hip Hooray!!!
