🌟 Room of the Month - Office🌟
Our Room of the Month deserves a huge thank you for being such an integral part of our nursery! You are always helpful, positive, and willing to support wherever you can, and we truly appreciate everything you do.
We know there is so much that goes on behind the scenes that can be challenging, yet you still always find the time to offer support in so many different ways.
Thank you for always being there when we need advice, an understanding ear, reassurance or simply a little pick-me-up when things feel challenging.
With the new framework and policies that have come into place, it is especially reassuring to know that there is always a friendly face we can turn to. Your support, positivity and willingness to help are felt by us all.

🌟 Employee of the Month – Sophie 🌟
In such a short space of time, Sophie has become a wonderful part of our nursery family! She has quickly built lovely relationships with both the children and staff, and it has been fantastic to see how well some of our more emotional children respond to her calm, caring, and supportive nature.
Sophie has also completed her dinner cover duties and is always happy to support all of our rooms. She is incredibly adaptable, willing to help wherever she is needed, and has settled into nursery life so well!
We are so pleased to recognise Sophie as our Employee of the Month for September! 💐

Every little detail has been chosen to create a soft and nurturing environment, from the warm lighting and natural textures to the calming colours and cosy little touches. 🤍🌿

Last week with the weather being so warm and beautiful, we wanted to treat our little ones while still promoting healthy eating and instilling important habits early on.
So we decided to make smoothies with them! We went on a trip to our local supermarket so we could factor in the children's interests. We walked down the fruit and vegetable aisle, showing them different fruits and letting them pick up the ones that interested them.
We included a variety of delicious ingredients, such as fruits like blueberries, apricots, strawberries, and grapes. We thoroughly enjoyed exploring the fruits, the practitioner cut the pieces up very small before being blended and allowed the children to have a small taste of each one so they could appreciate the different flavours and textures individually before they were taken to the kitchen to be blended with some cherry flavoured greek yoghurt. We then served the smoothies alongside their snacks. They had an absolute blast trying something new, exploring the tangy, sweet, and creamy flavours.
The practitioners also joined in, modelling the healthy aspect of this activity and demonstrating how fun it is for the little ones to try new, nutritious options.

The children enjoyed a circle time discussion as part of our communication and language curriculum, focusing on mini beasts and their habitats.
The children were encouraged to share their previous knowledge and experiences. We introduced new vocabulary, including habitat, insects, wings, antennae, crawl, and cocoon, while engaging them in questions about where mini beasts live and how they develop. Following the discussion, the children took part in a bug hunt in the Preschool garden, using magnifying glasses and bug viewers to look closely under leaves, logs, and plants. Their excitement grew as they discovered worms, ants, spiders, snails, and other small creatures.
To enhance their understanding, we explored the life cycle of butterflies through the story of The Very Hungry Caterpillar, discussing the stages from egg to caterpillar, chrysalis, and butterfly. The children made great efforts to sequence the life cycle correctly using cards. The exploration continued with constructing a bug hotel out of natural materials like sticks, leaves, and recycled items, discussing the importance of safe habitats for insects.

It has truly been a wonderful week of discovery!

Last week uur little ones had a wonderful time celebrating National Picnic Week by enjoying their snack together in our nursery garden. The children loved sitting on blankets with their friends, chatting, laughing, and sharing the experience of eating outdoors. It was a lovely opportunity to develop their social skills, encourage independence, and enjoy the fresh air while making happy memories together.
Outdoor experiences like this help children build friendships, develop communication skills, and promote a love for nature and the outdoors. What a fantastic way to enjoy snack time! 🧺😋🦋

🏴♥️🤍Little Gigglers are cheering for England!🤍♥️🏴

🏴Last week in Little Gigglers, we enjoyed discussing the World Cup! The children had a fantastic time creating their own flags using red paint to show support for England. They expressed their creativity, with some even using their hands to craft unique interpretations of the flag!🏴

🏴We also had great fun outside, practicing our goal-scoring skills in the garden! The children were excited to play football together, running around, chasing the ball, and having fun with their friends.🏴

These activities help with their physical development by strengthening leg muscles, improving fine motor skills, and enhancing hand-eye coordination.

🏴⚽So, let’s chant together: Come on, England! Little Gigglers believe in you!!!🏴⚽

This week, the children had a fantastic time exploring colours through a range of fun, creative activities.
They used primary paints and were encouraged to mix them to create new shades. Our Preschool children recognised familiar colours and eagerly experimented, predicting what would happen when blending two colours. Their curiosity shone through as they observed the changes in the paint.
During the activity, they enjoyed chatting with their friends and the practitioner, sharing their thoughts and observations. It was delightful to see them engage with the concept of colour and support one another while exploring their creativity!
