Ringle Rainbow Nursery

This week, the children have been strengthening their fine motor skills through threading activities, supporting early writing development. ✏️
They explored their feelings about starting school by creating Colour Monsters and designing their own school logos. 🎨

Outdoors, the children used their imaginations as builders and artists, constructing with blocks and drawing animals on the chalkboards. 🏗️🦁 During Forest School, they enjoyed a letter hunt to practise recognition skills and incorporated maths into play by counting blocks while building towers. 🌳🔤🔢

Role-play activities encouraged the children to take pretend phone calls, helping to develop their communication and social skills. ☎️😊

We are so proud of all the learning, creativity and confidence the children have shown this
week as they continue their journey towards school readiness! 💛

We’ve been making the most of the warmer weather by having our tea in the garden picnic-style 🧺, enjoying trips to the park, and playing games in the shade before snack time 🌳
 
This week we also explored our Internet Safety song, learning all about how to stay safe online 💻🎶 We created our very own zebra crossing to practise road safety 🚸 and talked about our bodies by making self-structures and dressing baby dolls 👶
 
Our little ones loved pretending to be police officers and ambulance workers, helping to keep the community safe 🚓🚑 We also learnt how to care for plants by watering them in the morning 🌱💦

What a busy and exciting week we have had at nursery! 🌿🐝
This week we have been exploring our beautiful garden and developing our balancing skills by completing an obstacle course. The children showed amazing turn-taking skills and had lots of fun in the sand creating delicious “ice creams” and “cakes”! 🍦🎂

We also enjoyed celebrating National Bee Day and learning all about how important bees are and how we can help keep them safe. 🐝 The children collected petals to create homes for the bees and worked on their fine motor skills by using tweezers to pick up pollen balls and feed the bees in our tuff tray activity.

At Forest School, we had a lovely nature walk where we collected pine cones, stopped by the train tracks to watch the trains go by and listened carefully to the different sounds they made. We also visited the pond where we spotted fish and checked on our tadpoles. 🐸🚂

To finish our session, we got creative making bees using string and pine cones, used pegs to pick up leaves, and some of us even climbed trees and pretended to be sloths hanging upside down! 🌳✨

What a fantastic week full of learning, exploring, and fun!

This week, we have had lots of fun learning about healthy and unhealthy foods. The children enjoyed sorting different foods and discussing how healthy foods help our bodies grow strong and stay healthy. 🍎🥕🍌

At Forest School, we explored nature by creating leaf and bark rubbings and making different sounds using sticks. The children loved forming their very own Forest School band and singing lots of songs together! 🎶🍃

We also visited the tadpoles in the pond and were very excited to discover 3 newts! 🐸✨
Alongside all of our adventures, we have been practising our numbers by arranging the large log numbers into the correct order and working hard on writing the first letters of our names. 🔢✏️

We are so proud of all the children and the enthusiasm they bring to their learning every day! 💚

This week we began our exciting new topic: Keeping Ourselves Healthy and Safe 🍎🚦🌍
 
The children explored different foods, learning which foods are healthy and which are treats, and we even discovered fruits from around the world! In the garden, we practised important road safety skills by learning how to cross the road safely, using traffic lights, and understanding what each colour means. 🚗🚶‍♀️
 
At Forest School 🌿, we went bug hunting, tied ribbons around trees, climbed and explored outdoors, and created beautiful mosaic jars using old flower petals and stems. We also enjoyed reading a story about tadpoles and carried out our weekly tadpole check! 🐸
 
Inside the nursery, the children practised their name writing in preparation for school ✏️, got creative with free painting 🎨, and furthered their maths knowledge by exploring weights and learning about 2D and 3D shapes 🔺⚪🧊
 
We are so proud of all the learning, creativity, and confidence shown this week. Well done everyone! 💛

This week, we celebrated the amazing runners from the London Marathon by hosting our very own mini marathon!🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️ The children designed their own unique race numbers for their t-shirts before running around the garden. We made sure to do a proper warm-up and cool-down too 💪
 
The children loved learning about why exercise is important and how the marathon helps support charities❤️
 
For Acts of Kindness Week, we painted our beautiful rainbow fish 🐠, adding bubbles every time someone showed kindness – it was lovely to see so many thoughtful moments! 💙
 
At circle time, we have been learning some BSL signs as part of Deaf Awareness Week 🤟 – the children really enjoyed exploring new ways to communicate!
 
We also explored the wind 🌬️ and discovered how windmills spin round and round when it’s breezy. At forest school, we checked in on our tadpoles 🐸, which are growing bigger every week – very exciting!
 
Our park trip was full of fun, with the zip line being a clear favourite 😄
 
In maths, we’ve seen some fantastic tower building 🏗️and enjoyed water painting different shapes 🎨

What a busy and fantastic week we’ve had! 🌟

This week, we explored St George’s Day by creating our own red and white flags. At Forest School, the children got creative using trees to make music, climbed high for bird watching, and celebrated Earth Day by litter picking and learning how to care for our planet 🌍

Our Earth Day activities continued with a special “cleaning under the sea” task, helping us understand how to keep our oceans safe. The children also had lots of fun decorating their own planets and experimenting with patterns using car tyres and paint 🎨

Following our theme ‘The Sky is the Limit,’ one child showed an interest in trains—so we brought that idea to life by painting our very own trains! 🚂

There was plenty of excitement in the garden too, with a fantastic football game where the children loved playing together and scoring goals ⚽

We also explored different types of weather, drawing them and discussing how each one makes us feel. In maths, the children enjoyed creating shapes and completing animal puzzles, while in literacy they showed a wonderful enthusiasm for stories, sharing lots of reading together 📚

We are so proud of all their creativity, curiosity, and teamwork this week—well done everyone! 💫

 

✨ The Sky is the Limit! ✨

What a fun and exciting week we’ve had at nursery as we began exploring our new theme, The Sky is the Limit! ☁️🌈

We enjoyed reading the story of The Rainbow Fish, where we discovered all the beautiful colours of the rainbow and talked about the importance of sharing and being kind to others 💖🌈🐠
The children also created their own night skies, learning why we need sleep and how it helps our bodies grow and stay healthy 🌙⭐

Our adventures continued outside at Forest School, where we used telescopes to explore how colours can change and got creative by making our own crowns using natural resources 👑🍃
In the garden, we had so much fun blowing bubbles, exploring bugs and insects, making finger puppets, and building exciting race tracks with large wooden bricks 🐞🫧🚗

We’ve also planted strawberry seeds and green beans, and we’re very excited to watch how they grow over the next few weeks 🍓🌱

And to top it all off… Daisy the hamster even came out to play! 🐹💕

What a wonderful week of learning, creativity, and outdoor fun!

This week at nursery the children have thoroughly enjoyed water play, experimenting with hoops to create bubbles and exploring which boats float. It’s been wonderful to see their curiosity and excitement in action!

We’ve also begun our new theme, “The Sky is the Limit,” where the children take the lead in their learning. One child chose to learn all about bats, so we watched a video and had a great discussion—there were lots of interesting ideas and questions shared!

Out in the garden, the children loved drawing shapes, proudly showing off their fantastic knowledge. With the sunny weather, we made the most of it by going on a bug hunt—using magnifying glasses and our best detective skills to discover all sorts of tiny creatures 🐞🔍

Creativity has been flowing too, as we painted a space-themed background using different techniques to create a beautiful galaxy. The children also impressed us with their independence while completing witches and wizards puzzles all by themselves—such amazing focus and determination!

We are so proud of everything the children have achieved this week. We can’t wait to see what next week brings! 🌟
