This week the children have really engaged with the theme of transport. Our new transport jigsaws have proved a favourite. They are a bit more challenging so encourage more concentration and hand-eye coordination to get them completed. The bricks have been turned into a car in the morning and a ghostbusters car in the afternoon. We added trucks to the sand tray as some of the children were showing an interest in tyre tracks. In the water tray this week we added some measuring spoons and a water dropper which the children can use to suck up water and measure. Both of these items have been encouraging some interesting maths and science play in the water tray. Along with the transport theme the children in both sessions have been making birthday cakes at the playdough table with straws for candles, this was extended to the writing table with the children writing party invitations.

Thank you to the parents and carers who were able to come along to the stay and play sessions this week.

Remember next week you are welcome to drop in and talk to your child’s keyworker about how your child is settling into nursery. The nursery will be open for parents and carers on Thursday 6th October from 4.30pm until 5.30pm.
