Nursery

Today we have been learning about the season of Winter. 
We were very lucky that the kitchen gave us some dairy free cream that we used in the tuff tray to make some snow. 
We were able to feel and taste the cream, while learning about which animals like the cold weather. We also talked about…

This half term our topic has been ‘Whats your favourite tale?’. 

We have loved reading lots of stories and exploring different fairytales using puppets. We have been through forests and up beanstalks to lands far away. Our top picks have been ‘The Three Little Pigs’, ‘The Gingerbread Man’, ‘The…

Last week’s bad weather didn’t stop us in Nursery! 
We suited up, put our wellies on and had lots of fun racing through puddles, jumping in muddy puddles, dancing in the rain and catching rain drops.

Nursery Fun Day and what a jam packed day we have had! 

We started with pass the parcel, we then took it in turns going on the bouncy castle and getting some summer themed tattoos. Before we knew it the ice cream van had arrived with a cold treat for us. (We didn’t get any photos of these as…

The Nursery children who are starting in our Reception class in September had a great time for transition morning in Reception. We read the story of the ‘Colour Monster’ and we then made face biscuits with different feelings. The children drew a self portrait of themselves and had lots of time in…

What a super sports day we have had in Nursery. We painted our faces with stripes to show which colour team we were in. Once we were ready we got into our teams and went outside to cheer on Reception. Then, it was our turn to race. We waited patiently in our teams until it was our turn to go. We…

On Wednesday we were very lucky and got to out of Nursery on a…

Our topic this half term has been about journeys. We have been reading stories where the characters travel on a journey to get to different places. Our favourite has been ‘We’re going on a bear hunt’, when the children go out for a walk looking to find a bear.

This week we were able to go on…

What a wonderful afternoon we have had in Nursery taking part in the Big Break Time for the NSPCC.

We spent the afternoon outside learning how to play hopscotch, hula hoop and stuck in the mud. We also enjoyed colouring and making some Bing crafts as well as water play and using the bikes and…

Over the last week we have learnt about the Queen and the Platinum Jubilee as well as making lots of crafts to decorate our Nursery ready for the Jubilee celebrations. 
To bring the week to a close we had a Jubilee Party Day to celebrate, and what a fantastic day we had. 
We came dressed in red,…

This week in Nursery we had a special Show and Tell session.
We have been learning a lot about pirates, what they look like, what they do, how they travel, as well as reading lots of stories about pirates. Our favourites include ‘Pirates love Underpants’ and ‘The Night Pirates’. We learnt that…

On Friday in Nursery we flew to the moon, just like in our story ‘Whatever next!’.
We gathered our teddy bears, climbed into our rocket and counted down for take off!
When we took off into space we saw lots of stars and some of the planets we have been learning about. 
As we landed on the moon,…
