We have embraced the sunshine this afternoon and enjoyed playing outside. Lots of wonderful collaborative work, helping each other, sharing resources and building friendships.
Embracing the sunshine in Nursery

Nursery – Tree clay faces
The children enjoyed creating tree clay faces using natural objects found in the garden today. Poppy from KS2 also joined us and loved it too. The children used their hand muscles to roll, squash, squeeze and pinch to manipulate the clay for their desired shape. We talked about emotions and how we could make a happy, excited, sad, OK and worried face. It was great fun and I was so proud of the children’s perseverance when trying to get their clay face to stick to the tree trunk.
Beautiful work Nursery Crew and Poppy!
Nursery – Capacity work
The children are looking at capacity in maths this week. They have been using key vocabulary ‘full, half full, empty, nearly full and nearly empty’ to describe the volume of a container. The children have enjoyed exploring capacity in the water tray, sand tray and craft area by collaging jars to represent capacity.
Well done for your hard work Nursery Crew! You are all Motiviated Moes!
We are yoga instructors
This afternoon the children took it in turn to be yoga instructors. We were very impressed with all their postures.
Red Nose Day
The children built and tested out an obstacle course using skills such as balancing, stepping and jumping.
They have had a game of football
and we saw some fantastic collaborative building!
The great outdoors
The children have loved being in the garden today.
Particularly playing with the parachute and trying to stop the ball from bouncing off.
Please bring named sun hats tomorrow.

Skittles Rainbow
Today the children were shown a plate of skittles as asked ‘What would happen if we poured water on them?’ We had some interesting predictions
Lenny said “They will grow”
Erin said “It will make a rainbow”
Vincent T said “It will make a plant”
Henry R said “It will grow an animal”
The children waited eagerly and were thrilled when it created a rainbow.
Good work everyone
