Our Bright Stars boys and girls from our playschool room and our ECCE rooms have been so busy this last couple of weeks learning all about flowers, the life cycle of the butterfly and celebrating World Bee Day 💐💐🦋🦋🐝🐝

We have been busy creating activities with our tuff trays, some fantastic baking and mostly enjoying the fabulous sunshine that we have been having recently.
Let’s hope the sunshine returns soon 😎😎

All of our children have had such a busy week this week in Bright Stars Childcare. We have made lots of arts & crafts for a special day this weekend (in case you’ve forgotten it’s Mother’s Day 🥰🥰).
They have also created some delicious baked treats, lots of sunny outdoor play time and of course some lovely stories during circle time.
Our year 1 class created a stunning spring masterpiece for their spring wall.
Our year 2 class made some fantastic dinosaurs using coloured card and lots of imagination during their dinosaur week.
Our Playschool room had great fun out in the garden with lots of giggling going on. They also love to look at their family photos chatting about who is in their families. They have also loved having make believe picnics with their ‘babies’ each morning.
And while I can’t share pictures of the amazing crafty treats that were taken home today, let’s just say there will be a lot of very happy Mammies this weekend who are all loved so very very much. 💖💖
Have a wonderful weekend everybody.
