During half term, we embarked on our exciting garden project! Our adventure included a visit to Bardills garden centre on the tram π, where we explored seeds and plants, and even had the chance to observe fish. Feeding the turtles was a delightful highlight! We're really looking forward to getting our hands dirty with planting next term and tasting our very own home-grown fruits and vegetables.π½ ππ₯

Library Visits! π
This past term, we have truly loved our trips to Beeston Library.
Our Toddler and Preschool children enjoy strolling through Beeston, taking in all the sights of our local community. They have had fun watching the crane and various vehicles around the centre of Beeston! ππ¦
During these visits, we focused on selecting books about toilet training, brushing teeth, and dentist visits. π¦·πͺ₯
Weβre excited for our next outing to swap our books and discover new ones! π

πβ¨ What a fantastic week of celebration and creativity the children have had! πβ¨ We spoke about Diwali this week and did some fun educational activities such as creating beautiful rangoli patterns with rice play, helping to develop our fine motor skills. We also had so much fun painting fireworks using toilet roll tubes, in which was great for practicing gross motor skills and adding a splash of colour to our festivities! πποΈ We also took a trip into Beeston to pick out some pumpkins for Halloween, We all can't wait to carve them next week!ππ»
