Nursery

The children have been making pirate parrot finger puppets this week with felt. They picked their own colours for the parrot and his beak, glued their own eyes on and added a colourful feather. Let’s hope they don’t turn into talking parrots when they get home. 
 

In Nursery we have started our Pirate topic. The children have been making their own paper pirate underpants, making pirate hats and telescopes. Next we will be looking for pirate treasure using our treasure maps. 

Our Nursery children made Easter hats at home and took part in a parade in the classroom and then outside with a standing applause from KS2. The children loved taking part. 
 

This week we have been reading the story of ‘The Very Hungry Caterpillar’. The children have then been making their own caterpillars out of bread and even adding some raisins for eyes. Over the next few weeks we will be learning more about caterpillars and butterflies.

Nursery made some pancakes to celebrate Pancake day. We flipped them in a frying pan and then the best part- we got to taste them! We could choose Biscoff spread, syrup, chocolate sauce or jam to go on them. Yummy.

For Children’s Mental Health awareness week 2021 we spoke about what makes us happy in Nursery. The children who are in Nursery said baking and their friends, which is always nice to hear. Our children at home were happy when they were baking, colouring, dancing and even eating chocolate! We also…

After reading the story ‘Superworm’, the Nursery children who are at home made their own Superworms with playdough, beads or bricks. Superworm to the rescue! 
 

Our Nursery that are in school have been enjoying using our new water channels outside. With the weather being very rainy at the minute, it was the perfect time to put our waterproofs on and test them out. In Nursery we have fun in all weathers.
