This week in shining stars we welcomed lots of new friends into our class. The children were very helpful showing the children our classroom routine and all the different areas we have to play in. The children really enjoyed exploring the washing tuff tray where the children chose a teddy each to wash.
We hope you have a great weekend everyone!

What a wonderful first week back in Raising Stars! The children have been busy into their new preschool year, making new friends and exploring the learning environment.
We enjoyed lots of outdoor play, including sand play and the children also had great fun caring for baby dolls through water play, washing and bathing them while exploring concepts of caring and personal hygiene. To celebrate the start of the new school year, the children took part in our First Day of Preschool Photo Booth, proudly posing for photographs. We are so proud of how well the children started their first week and we look forward to many exciting adventures together this year! Have a great weekend.

This week in Twinkle Stars the children displayed an interest in cutting and gluing. We set up a station for the children to cut up old magazines and to glue them onto their page using glue sticks. They also got their own glitter and liked putting it on their page. This activity helped the children with their fine motor skills and turn taking skills.

Later in the week the children went outside to have a picnic. Each children sat on the blanket with there bowl of fruit and crackers. They loved sitting on the blanket and talking to their friends while they ate their snack. We hope you have a wonderful weekend from Twinkle Stars ✨

This week in Shining Stars the children had their own teddy bear picnic. Each of the children brought in their favourite teddy bear from home and we had our snack out in the garden. The children really enjoyed showing each other the teddies they decided to bring into class and each of the children showed great care and nurture towards their teddy. Have a great weekend everyone!

This week in Raising Stars, the children loved exploring the tent in the garden, using their imagination as they crawled in and out, played hide-and-seek. The children further developed their hand-eye coordination and fine motor skills by practising their cutting skills using child-safe scissors and they carefully cut leaves and explored the natural materials while building confidence in using scissors safely and independently. To celebrate the recent solar eclipse, the children explored the sun and moon through creative art activities. They painted bright suns and moons, using different colours and brush strokes to create their own unique artwork. The children also enjoyed a sensory tuff tray filled with pasta and coloured rice, where they created their own representations of the sun and moon. It was a wonderful week here in Raising Stars, we'll see you all next week.

This week in Twinkle Stars the children displayed an interest in looking at the birds in the sky. Each day the children would point and show the educators all the birds when they went outside to the garden.

Later in the week we got black, blue, orange and brown paint that the children used to paint their own birds. The children used their hands and a paintbrush to paint their own version of a bird. It was very interesting to see each individual child’s interpretation of what a bird looks like. This activity help them with their imagination and fine motor skills. We hope you have a wonderful weekend from Twinkle Stars ✨

This week in shining stars the children had a very fun filled week. The children really enjoyed being outdoors and exploring the warm weather. The children worked together in the garden to pop all bubbles from our new flower bubble machine. The children also practiced communicating their emotions this week using the visual aids available to them within the classroom. While indoors there was lots of group play and development of friendships through the exploration of the home corner. The children ended the week with a treasure hunt. The children worked very hard to create their own maps, decorate stones with yellow crepe paper and glitter for the treasure and then explored the garden working together to find the treasure box. We hope you all have a great bank holiday weekend.
