This morning all the children headed up to the playing field with some of our buddies. Our first task was HUNT THE BEAR Ava, Anya and Lola were quick to find them. We played some other games before going to the STORYTELLING AREA to have our picnic. We remembered to feed our bears too. Thank you to all the buddies for helping and nursery staff for organising the picnic.

 girls joined in the games. We met some interesting bears including PEGGY the school library bear. Thank you to all our buddies, Kevin Crocodile and nursery staff for organising our TEDDY BEAR PICNIC.
Farewell to our butterflies
We released our butterflies this week. We have enjoyed watching them change from caterpillars into butterflies and found it exciting waving them off into the sky.
AM Nursery Sports
This week was our nursery sports. We experienced the hurdles, hopscotch and javelin. At the end we received a medal and a rosette. 
Our Butterflies
Our caterpillars finally changed into butterflies. We all went outside to release them and found it exciting to watch them fly away.
PM Nursery Sports Day
We had our sports this week. We experienced the hurdles, the javelin and balancing the tennis ball on the racket. At the end we were all presented with a medal and rosette.
What shall we have for snack today?
We searched the nursery garden and found the rhubarb patch. It was quite hard pulling up the stalks but we managed. Chop, chop, choppity chop, chop off the bottom and chop off the top. Staight into the pot for cooking. Now for the topping, lots of butter and flour then spread it evenly over the fruit. Now into the oven. The best bit mmmmmmmm. We are discovering where food comes from as we choose, prepare and taste different foods.
After making snack children have the opportunity to check on the weather situation and update the calendar. Todays chefs completed the task to a high standard.
Butterflies
Our caterpillars have become beautiful butterflies. We are learning about their life cycle at art and craft using dried pasta.
Sounds
At outdoor play, we have been making music using improvised instruments. The two lids make good cymbals and we can keep the beat with our drumsticks on the recycling bins. Archie and Rory are trying to send a message through the tube.
P1 Transition
Nursery children have enjoyed teaming up with Primary 1 to create their own butterfly. They worked cooperatively to design and plan their beautiful butterflies. Thank you to Primary 1 staff and pupils for making us feel so welcome.
