The Nursery children came into school this morning to the delight that during the night we had some chicks hatch. We now have three lovely fluffy chicks to look after in Nursery and hopefully more to hatch over the weekend. The other children in school and all the staff were really excited to meet…

Nursery have had some new additions this week. Our own chick eggs!!! We have been patiently waiting and singing to them all week and today we have seen the first signs of life. Watch this space! By tomorrow we will hopefully have some new baby chicks to look after. 

After reading the story of Jack and the Beanstalk some of the children made giant items for the giant. They made giant watches, giant ties and bows and even some giant glasses. 

Our Nursery role play has now changed into a hairdressers. The children have had lots of fun doing each other’s hair and role playing in there. We even now have some pretend hair dryers and straighteners now too. 

Nursery watched a science experiment outside for Science day. The children watched as Mrs Palmer dropped some mints into a bottle of Pepsi. The mints then reacted and made the Pepsi shoot out like a fountain. All the children screamed and laughed as they didn’t know what was going to…

Nursery celebrated World Book Day by dressing as their favourite book character. What super outfits! 

Nursery celebrated pancake day with some yummy pancakes. They could have chocolate, jam or lemon juice on them. What a surprise when they all chose chocolate or jam! Some children even came back for another one. Happy pancake day! 

Nursery have been having fun this week in our provision. They have been playing with the dolls house, sorting colour bears and also ‘fishing’ outside with the skipping ropes. We have also welcomed some new Nursery children too. 

Nursery had a dress up day where the children came to Nursery in their favourite dressing up outfit. They all looked super! We also had some of our afternoon children join us later in the day. 

Last week’s Star of the week in Nursery was Ella Mai. She has been showing great confidence in her mark making and number skills. Well done!

This week in Nursery we have been learning about long, tall and short. The children have been making long trains and train tracks and building tall and short towers. Some of their towers were even bigger than them! We also did some threading with long and short laces. 

After reading the story, ‘We’re Going on a Bear Hunt’ this week, the children made some bear masks in the provision. Some were very friendly bears, but some were scary!!
