We’ve had a lovely week settling back into nursery after half term. We had some exciting news on our return, we had five beautiful butterflies. We let them go into nursery garden and we even got to hold one as we did. Such a fabulous experience to be a part of 🐛🦋

The sun is finally shining ☀️

Have a lovely half term everyone, we will see you back at nursery Monday 1st June ❤️

3 of our caterpillars have formed their cocoons, we are really enjoying watching what happens stage by stage and making predictions on what will happen next 🐛

Today whilst the year 6 children sat their final SAT paper, we went to the playground to explore the loose parts play area. We had so much fun taking risks and working together as a team ❤️

Wow what a lovely thing to see this morning at nursery! A deer came to visit, the children were so excited 🦌

We’ve had an exciting week at nursery, our caterpillars have arrived! We have been learning about the life cycle and enjoying the story ‘The very hungry caterpillar’ We have set up at viewing station where the children can access daily to check on the progress of the caterpillars, we are very excited to watch them grown and eventually transform into beautiful butterflies

In our phonics class today we focused on the sound ‘q’ doing lots of fun activities and then having a go at writing our own ‘q’ - round the queens face, down the hair and flick

Our latest expert of the week loves dinosaurs and recently shown an interest in fossils and excavation of dinosaur bones. Today we created our own excavation dig where children used brushes to carefully brush away the sand and find a range of bones and dinosaur skeletons. We learnt some fab new vocabulary and measured what we found, describing them a big, small, massive, tiny etc. This then led us into creating our own fossils, using coffee, flour and salt and chose a dinosaur to make an imprint, they look fantastic, what a fun filled Dino day 🦕🦖

This week we have found out our expert of the week loves the beach and going to the park so that’s exactly what we did at nursery. We spent the morning at our own nursery beach where we paddled in the water and built sandcastles and then in the afternoon we walked to the park and enjoyed an afternoon playing together in the sunshine ☀️
