Nursery Family Sponsor Welly Walk
Just a reminder for tomorrows welly walk, drop children off at normal times. We plan to leave at 9.30am for the morning session and 12.30pm for the afternoon session. Looks like there is light rain forecast so dress appropriately – hopefully we can find some puddles for a little splash!
If I had a hammer!
This week the children have been very busy exploring our new tool area. They have been drilling, hammering, measuring and sanding. We have all been so proud at how carefull the children have been and how everyone has followed the safety instructions when using the tools . The children have started risk assessing the area themselves, reminding each others to put on the safety googles and stay back.
Dinosaur fun in the woods
Today we searched for different sizes of leaves on the way to the woods, the children then sorted them into size order small medium and large. Some of us stopped for a while and watched the wind blowing the leaves, noticing how the wind gusts strong and soft and how quickly the clouds moved in the sky changing its colour. Mrs Morton offered the children a chance to help her on a dinosaur hunt, 4 had gone missing in the woods. The children searched high and low , looking in trees and the undergrowth. Some children built dinosaur dens to keep them safe, while Miss Gardner helped the children to build traps to catch more. Miss Fraser invited the children to identify numbers and place the correct amount of sticks or leaves on them. What a busy day in the woods!
Afternoon book bug lauch
Bookbug Launch
On Thursday 22th March the younger children will be receiving their Book Bug Pack . To support this we are inviting all nursery children to come dressed as a character from a story book or in any fancy dress costume to help launch this. Please do not go to any expense. Thank you The Nursery Team.
Forest Nursery
Well today was very exciting in nursery, we started our Forest Nursery! The children had the opportunity to explore the local woodland. We discussed how to keep safe, with great responses to “watch out for branches”, “jaggy nettles”, “tripping up”, “getting poked” we also had to watch out for “The Gruffalo” and “Tigers”.
There was wonderful imaginative play when we found a witches broomstick and had a hunt for her! We used the trees as seesaws, swings and to hide behind during hide and seek.
Help was on hand from the children to build a shelter for snack and then a story before we headed back back to school.
