Behind every happy nursery is a Team that feels supported, inspired and valued. 💚

Our Manager, Angie, shares what leadership means to her: motivating the team, encouraging each other and working together to give our children the very best start ✨

That support shines through in our incredible team, day in, day out; in the care they give, the experiences they create and the high-quality early years provision they deliver.

In light of recent transitions, over the last couple of weeks, the children at Canopy have been busy engaging in our ‘all about me’ topic, working to positively develop their sense of self.

All cohorts were exposed to a variety of inspiring, meaningful experiences from building family trees, using pictures from home, to creating self portraits with mixed medias.

This proved a fantastic way for the children to celebrate themselves and their diverse backgrounds, while fostering appreciation for all children and staff within the nursery.

This Summer the children at Canopy had an exciting opportunity to watch the process of metamorphosis, where five tiny caterpillars grew and transformed before their very eyes! 🐛

The children’s eager observations sparked natural curiosity as they measured their growth and explored this fascinating life cycle, while developing empathy and respect for living things.

After meticulously forming their chrysalises, we were delighted to welcome five beautiful Painted Lady butterflies! Relishing in their release, the children did so in our garden, where they fluttered amongst the flowers and began their next adventure! 🦋

💬 What I wish parents knew about toddlers learning…

We sat down with our Junior Deputy Manager, Alicia, for a quick Q&A and asked her what she wishes every parent knew about how toddlers learn. 🌱

One of her biggest messages? The simple, everyday moments matter more than you might think.

🍽️ Mealtimes are learning opportunities. Sitting together, chatting about the day, naming foods, asking questions and giving your toddler time to respond can do so much for their communication and language development.

📵 Reducing screen time creates more space for interaction. Toddlers learn through real conversations, play, eye contact, repetition and simply spending time with the people around them.

You don’t always need elaborate activities to support your child’s development. Talking, listening, playing and being present are some of the most powerful learning experiences we can give them. 💛

Small everyday interactions can make a BIG difference.

As a fond farewell, before embarking on their upcoming journey to big school, our preschool children were treated to an exciting day out to central London. Where we explored the wondrous world of Paddington Bear through a variety of immersive experiences, at the ‘Paddington Bear Experience’ in Westminster.

We will miss all our Bluebells and the constant smiles and laughs they bring, but know they are more than ready for this transition as they go on to thrive at primary school. 🩷

Our Baby Room (Primrose) has been thoughtfully designed to provide a calm, nurturing environment where babies feel secure, valued, and inspired to explore at their own pace.

Over the last week, the children at Canopy have been exploring all things environmental, with a focus on pollution - in collaboration with World Oceans Day 🌊

Through a range of activities, including litter picking, meaningful tuff trays highlighting the impact of waste on our eco-systems, recycling ♻️, junk modelling and storytelling. The children have learnt a variety of simple but important changes they can make on a daily basis to help protect and care for our planet.

This has proven a valuable opportunity for our young environmentalists to develop a sense of responsibility and respect for the world around them. Inspiring positive habits that will help keep our planet clean for future generations. 🌍

🐞🔎Crawling with curiosity!🔍🪲

Over the last few weeks our young learners have been buzzing with excitement as we delved into the fascinating world of minibeast’s and insects! Curiosity flourished as the children embarked on a variety of bug hunts, leaving no log unturned in search of these tiny creatures. Equipped with magnifying glasses, science scissors, and nets they explored a range of fascinating species up close, developing observational skills and deepening their understanding of the natural world.

Casting our focus to bees 🐝, the children enthusiastically engaged in imaginative role play, bringing the magic of pollination to life. Our topic culminated with a special visit from Beekeeper Annika, who shared captivating insights into a bee’s life cycle and showcased the equipment she uses to harvest honey. The sweetest part of all was tasting Annika’s delicious honey straight from her hives - later inspiring us to bake our very own honey flapjacks!
