After listening to the story the children thought it would be fun to make their own nests.\u00a0 In order to do this they collected some twigs, feathers and leaves.\u00a0 They all helped to make an amazing little display which included Sarah, Percy and Bill.\u00a0 The children have loved this, it has given them the opportunity to use their creativity and engage in some fantastic imaginary role play.\u00a0 This has also been a fantastic opportunity for the children to observe seasonal change and opened up lots of opportunity for us to explore Autumn.\u00a0 We also discovered that it was the first day of autumn on Tuesday.\u00a0 We are all looking forward to learning more about Autumn.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">The children have also been continuing to enjoy learning about how to keep ourselves healthy.\u00a0 This week the children have been enjoying lots of healthy fruit snacks.\u00a0 They even had the opportunity to make their very own smoothies.\u00a0 The children absolutely loved this.\u00a0 They chopped up fruit and worked collaboratively to make delicious smoothies.\u00a0 \u00a0This was a real treat. \u00a0\u00a0Well done everyone!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>Children\u2019s voice<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><em>\u201cThe birds might get
