It’s been a fantastic week welcoming all our lovely children and their families to St Nicholas ELC.  It has been lovely getting to know all our new little children.  They have all done exceptionally well and it has been a delight getting know everyone.  The main focus of the week has been helping our new little ones and our returning children to settle into the nursery ensuring they feel safe and secure.  They have all enjoyed getting know one another and have been amazing at learning nursery routines.  There has been lots of wonderful activities taking place to help our children feel welcomed and nurtured.  We have spent lots of time outdoors enjoying the lovely sunshine.  Some of the children noticed that our sunflowers have grown over the summer.  We thought this would be a good opportunity to measure the sunflowers to see how much they have grown over the summer.  We have also enjoyed summer walks looking for signs of summer and appreciating the wonder of nature.  The children have equally enjoyed playing inside the nursery and here are a few pictures of some of the activities the children have experienced.  The staff at St Nicholas ELC are looking forward to a new and exciting term and want all our children to feel welcomed and enjoy their time at nursery.
