Wee Deans

Some of the children were talking about volcanoes so we decided to build one as an experiment.  We learnt that volcanoes are holes in the earth from which molten rock, gas and ash erupt, thankfully there are none in Deans!

Thankfully it looks like Spring is here.  In nursery we have been talking about what that means.  We made beautiful Spring pictures and updated our display which looks fabulous.  Next time you are in nursery please stop and have a look.

Children have absolutely loved getting out into our garden area to use the lovely new resources we have recently bought.  The sandpit and water area have been put to very good use.

We’ve attached an overview of our learning for this month.

Some of the children requested to make Valentine cards on Thursday so we got the glue and glitter and made some beautiful cards. If you were lucky enough to receive one we hope you loved it.

We celebrated World Book Day, the children loved wearing their pyjamas and sharing their favourite stories. Mrs Moyes came along to present some books as prizes from a raffle she held. We had three lucky winners. Well done!

A tasty treat was enjoyed in nursery, we celebrated Shrove Tuesday by baking our own delicious pancakes.  Everyone had to follow the recipe very carefully and be very careful next to the hot grill but were rewarded by yummy pancakes.

We try to encourage everyone to keep fit and healthy, we love having use of the big gym hall and use the large space to run around.We are very good at following instructions and are great sports if we play a game and we’re first out! A big thank you to Sandra, our volunteer helper who helps out every gym day.
