From sensory exploration and seasonal learning, to storytelling, creativity and outdoor discovery - it has been a busy and exciting year so far in our Nursery. 💛

Throughout Terms 1 and 2, children across our Baby Room, Toddler Room and Pre-School have explored a huge range of activities designed to support communication, confidence, creativity and early development. From autumn treasure hunts and Christmas sensory play, to themed learning inspired by stories such as Owl Babies, Stick Man and The Colour Monster, every experience has encouraged curiosity, imagination and learning through play.

Now in Term 3, our learning continues with spring-themed activities, planting, nature exploration, storytelling and hands-on sensory experiences. Children are exploring books including Jack and the Beanstalk, taking part in outdoor learning, creative play and activities that support early maths, language, physical development and emotional wellbeing. 🌱📚✨

A huge well done to everyone who took part in our Easter Competition and submitted such fantastic entries! 🐰

We were so impressed by the creativity, colour and effort shown by all of our children.

A special congratulations to our winner, Theo from the Baby Room, whose amazing entry is featured in the first picture!

Thank you to everyone who joined in and helped make our Easter celebrations extra special. We loved seeing all of your wonderful creations!

This morning, our children enjoyed a visit to the College's Immersive Suite, taking part in interactive games linked to our theme of journeys.

The session finished with a calming meditation experience in the Magic Forest, giving everyone the chance to relax and reflect.

A brilliant way to learn, engage and experience something different.
