🌿💚 Mental Health & Well-being Week at Nursery 💚🌿
This week, we have been celebrating Mental Health and Well-being Week, focusing on activities that help our children feel happy, calm, confident, and connected to the world around them.
The children enjoyed a range of wonderful experiences, including yoga sessions, spending time outdoors in nature, exploring the world through their senses, and visiting animals. These activities encouraged relaxation, mindfulness, curiosity, and emotional well-being while creating lots of smiles and special memories along the way.
We are so proud of how enthusiastically the children embraced each experience and the positive conversations we shared about feelings, kindness, and looking after ourselves.
💙 Supporting children's mental health and well-being is an important part of their development, and we loved celebrating this together throughout the week.

Millie's Mark 🦒 .

This week we have been celebrating Millie the giraffes birthday.

Millie’s Mark is an extremely prestigious accreditation. It shows the nurseries commitment to 1st aid and health and safety. We are very proud to have held this award for many years.

Millie has spent the week with us doing lots of fun activities on the run up to her birthday, which is today. This week we have spoken about how we can be a good friend to Millie, we have made an obstacle course to get Millie moving as her legs where stiff. We also did some first aid on Millie as she had a poorly leg. To end the week we have thrown Millie a big happy birthday party to celebrate! How exciting! We've had the best week with Millie and we wish her the happiest of birthdays.
