🏴⚽ Come on England! ⚽🏴

The children have been getting into the football spirit today with their England flag face paints, ready to cheer on the team in their first World Cup match tonight! ❤️🤍💙

Face painting is always a favourite activity at nursery, encouraging children to express themselves, build confidence and have lots of fun with their friends.

We think our little supporters look fantastic and are ready to cheer England all the way! 🙌⚽

Good luck, England! 🦁🦁🦁

Happiest of birthdays to my gorgeous little boy!! How are you 3 already?! We hope you have the most amazing day ❤️🎂

Last week we enjoyed a fantastic High Street Week at nursery! 🏙️✨

The children immersed themselves in imaginative role play as they explored different businesses found on a high street. Our nursery transformed into a bustling Costa Coffee shop, a busy garage, a Clarks shoe shop, and even a Domino’s pizza restaurant! ☕👟🚗🍕

Through these exciting experiences, the children developed their communication and language skills, mathematical thinking, problem-solving abilities, and understanding of the world around them. They loved taking on different roles, serving customers, repairing vehicles, fitting shoes, and creating delicious pizzas.

It was wonderful to see so much creativity, confidence, and teamwork as the children learned through play and discovered how different people and businesses help our community every day.

🚧 Construction Week again this week and we’ve had SO much messy play fun! 👷‍♀️🛠️

Our tuff trays have been full of exciting hands-on activities for the children to explore and enjoy. We used our diggers alongside natural materials collected by the children themselves from outdoors, encouraging creativity, imagination and teamwork 🌿🚜

The children also enjoyed face painting, mark making, baby role play and exploring our seasonal themed tuff tray 🍂❄️🌸☀️ Every activity was messy play based, giving the children opportunities to explore textures, build confidence, develop fine motor skills and express themselves through play.

We love creating inviting spaces where children can learn, investigate and have fun through sensory experiences 💛

🚧👷‍♀️ Construction Week last week at nursery! 👷‍♂️🚧

This week we’ve been busy little builders! The children have loved exploring all things construction through painting, building, designing and creating. From colourful masterpieces to teamwork on building projects, there has been lots of imagination, creativity and fun along the way 🛠️🎨

Activities like these help develop fine motor skills, problem solving, communication and teamwork - all while having an amazing time!

We’ve loved seeing our little construction workers so engaged and proud of their creations 💛

🦔 Our little learners have loved exploring our Hedgehog Awareness Week window display! From naming hedgehog body parts to pretending to be hedgehogs themselves, the children have been learning all about these fascinating little creatures through play, books and hands-on activities.

Did you know? Hedgehogs can travel up to 2 miles in one night searching for food! 🌙✨

We’re now getting ready to transform our window for our next exciting theme… any guesses what it might be? 👀🍂🌈

Last week our focus was PSED (Personal, Social and Emotional Development) 💛

The children explored their emotions through role play, talking about feelings, creative drawing activities and working together as a team. We loved seeing their confidence grow as they shared, communicated, problem solved and supported one another throughout the week ✨

These activities help children to build important social skills, develop friendships, understand emotions and learn how to work cooperatively with others 😊

Last week at nursery we celebrated National Hedgehog Week! 🦔🍂

The children have enjoyed taking part in lots of hedgehog-themed activities focusing on fine motor skills, early numeracy, caring for living creatures, and learning how we can help protect our environment. From counting and sorting activities to creative play and outdoor exploration, the children showed so much curiosity, kindness, and enthusiasm throughout the week.

We loved seeing the children develop their skills while learning about these wonderful little animals and the importance of looking after nature around us 🌿💚

We are absolutely thrilled to share that we’ve received our second award for Childcare Provider of the Year! 🏆✨

This achievement means so much to us, but it truly wouldn’t be possible without the incredible support from our families. A special thank you to all of our parents for your patience, encouragement and trust, especially during our recent move to our new setting. Your support throughout that transition meant everything to us.

We’re so proud of what we’ve built together and feel incredibly grateful to be part of your children’s early years journey. Here’s to continuing to grow, learn, and achieve together ❤️

Thank you for being part of our story

We’re celebrating world book day next week and would love the children to come dressed as their favourite book character or superhero!
