This past weekend we brought our teams from across all our nurseries to Chawton for our annual conference. We started the day with training workshops and group discussions led by Vicky before moving on to speeches and certificates in the afternoon. We were also joined by the brilliant Louisa from Jigsaw Early Years Training for a motivational keynote speech before we gave out our Daisy awards.

This event is all about giving our teams the opportunity to work collaboratively, share ideas and take time to reflect on the year so we’re all refreshed and ready to head into the new academic year in September.

We’ll be sharing more about our award winners, including who won our Parents’ Choice Awards, very soon. But for now, here are a few snaps from a wonderful day of celebrating team Daisy! 🌼

❄️ For our final Summer of Fun week, we’ve been on an expedition to the North and South Poles. The children have been learning about all manner of cold weather creatures, from penguins to polar bears, and considering what these climates are really like. ❄️

This week’s activities have included making their own snowflakes and snowballs, pretending to run their own ice cream shops, playing with snow dough, finding hidden ice letters, and learning more about hot and cold. 🐧 🐻‍❄️

As our Summer of Fun comes to a close, we’ve had four fantastic weeks inspired by David Attenborough and his conservation work. Our Summer of Fun programme has proved to be the perfect opportunity to teach the children more about the world around them and spark their interest in animals and environments, plus we’ve had an absolute blast enjoying plenty of exciting themed activities! 🐾

It’s been jungle and rainforest week here at Daisy Nursery and we have all had a blast discovering more about the amazing animals that live in these habitats. 🌴 The children have been taking part in activities inspired by Rumble in the Jungle and Dear Zoo, pretended to be jungle animals and explored their own imaginary safaris, completed monkey-themed puzzles and painted their own parrots! 🐒 🦜

We have also once again been joined by some truly brilliant guests, including friends and relatives of the nurseries, a visit from Birdworld at Crown Daisy, and Leighton from Bugfest joined all four of our nurseries to introduce the children to some friendly critters. From Rosie the tarantula to Sheila the Australian stick insect, the children showed great curiosity in all the creatures – and so did the team! Thank you to all our marvellous guests.

We have dived into the second week of Summer of Fun themed around oceans and underwater life! 🐠🌊

The children used their imaginations to become deep-sea divers as they created their own ocean-themed crafts, from jellyfish suncatchers to their very own painted coral reefs, explored sea animal-themed sensory trays and engaged in aquarium and turtle sanctuary-themed play. 🪸 🪼 The theme also saw the children build on the motor skills through activities involving walking planks and saving sea animals from nets. 🦭

That’s not all though as we had some fantastic guests join us this week, including visitors from Marwell Zoo and Swim Safe, as well as John and his guide dog, Benji, and Dan, a Butter Daisy parent who shared his interest in fishing with the children. Stacey from Aster Daisy also brought her very own pet turtle along to meet the children. A huge thank you to all our special guests this week (both human and animal!). 🐢

We’re heading into the weekend already looking forward for what week 3 has in store!

Our first week of Summer of Fun has been a roaring success! 🦕 This year, Summer of Fun is focused on the work of Sir David Attenborough in honour of his 100th birthday earlier this year. Each week for the next four weeks, we’ll be taking part in activities linked to one of the subjects of his documentaries. This week, the children have taken to their roles as junior palaeontologists brilliantly for our dinosaurs and prehistoric worlds theme.

The children have been engaging in a huge range of activities that have transported them back millions of years to discover the fascinating world of dinosaurs. From cave painting and excavating their own fossils, to volcano experiments and exploring fizzing dinosaur eggs, we’ve had a fantastic time with this theme! 🦖

We also need to say a huge thank you to the guests who have visited our nurseries to teach and inspire the children this week. We’ve been joined by experts in geology and palaeontology, and the children have even been treated to their very own puppet show!

All this and Summer of Fun has only just begun! We can’t wait to see what next week’s oceans and underwater life theme has in store! 🐋

It’s a special day at our nurseries as we’ve been celebrating the birthday of one our favourite authors - Beatrix Potter! 🐰 That’s not all though, as we’ve also been learning how special the bonds we have with our friends are ahead of International Friendship Day. In the end, we realised these two special days go together like Peter Rabbit and Benjamin Bunny! 🐇 🐇

In honour of her 160th birthday, Pre-School have been enjoying Beatrix Potter’s classic stories, planting seeds and singing the birthday song to celebrate! 🎂 🦔

Over at the Toddler Suite, the children have been helping their friends to hop on bunny feet and search for carrots from Mr McGregor’s Garden. 🥕 Meanwhile, the Babies have also been taking part in vegetable printing and exploring friendship by looking after their dolls and learning about kindness.

Is there anything better on a summer’s day than a nice, cool smoothie? 🍓 🫐🍌 At Crown Daisy, Leanne, one of our brilliant Deputy Managers, has been showing the children how to prepare their very own smoothies recently, from cutting up the fruit, to blending, to the most important step of all… taste-testing! Pre-School made the perfect smoothie sous-chefs as they learned how to prepare their very own healthy treats.😋

There’s been a wonderful full-circle moment at Sunshine Daisy this week as we’ve welcomed India and Olivia for their work experience placements. Both of them attended Sunshine back when they were nursery-age! We were thrilled to hear that they wanted to return for their work experience all these years later.

The team said it was lovely having the students come along to experience the other side of life at Sunshine and India and Olivia shared fond memories of their time at the nursery, particularly of the gardens and the Pre-School rooms. 🌼

We want to thank them both for joining us, and we hope they enjoy their well-earned summer breaks!

On this day in 1969, Apollo 11 touched down on the Moon. Today, our young explorers have been taking part in a range of moon-themed activities to celebrate International Moon Day. 🚀 They have been engaging in small-world (or should we say small-moon!) play to re-enact the Moon landing and using their imaginations to explore the lunar landscape.

The children also created their own artworks using different lunar-themed tools and made their own craters using rocks in moon sand. They even walked through a powdery moondust sensory tray in the footsteps of Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin! 🌝
