Peel Common Nursery and Infant School

Children in the early years have been busy building scarecrows this week as part of our theme based on The Scarecrow's Wedding by Julia Donaldson. What a fun way to develop physical skills!

Easter fun in the malleable area this week. A great work out for little fingers!

Early Years have been investigating printing this week. They have been developing their printing skills by loading objects with paint and pushing down firmly to make a print.

This week Flowerbed Class went on a trip to Swanwick Lakes Nature Reserve. They had a fabulous time bug hunting in the woods, pond dipping and exploring their senses in the meadow.

Funky fingers are in full bloom this week in the Flowerbed Class. We have been practicing our pincer grip when threading beads and improving our cutting skills creating daisy chains 🌼

Peel Common Infant School have a hall for hire if anyone is looking for a space in Gosport

Look at the amazing art our Year 2 children have created while learning about the artist Esther Mahlangu.

Children in The Hive have been exploring the story Leaf Man. They had fun collecting leaves in our garden and then created their own leaf men 🍂🍁

Children in the Flowerbed Class have been enjoying learning inside and outside this week. We have been making marks and developing our fine and gross motor skills in different ways.

Flowerbed Class went on a walk to the shops this week to buy vegetables. Each group chose a different type of vegetable to buy and we have used them in different ways from having them as snack to using them to paint with.

What fun we have had being scientists this week! In year 2 we have been learning about whether animals are Herbivores, Omnivores or Carnivores and investigated their poo for clues! Making sure we wore our safety equipment, we found bones, leaves, twigs and grass! (Don't worry - it was coloured playdough!)
