Shiver-me-timbers! These cheeky pirates have been causing trouble in Nursery! They are WANTED! 10 Howl point reward for anyone who can find them!

The children this week have been busy planting beetroot and sunflowers. We are going to care for the plants and watch them grow through the summer term.

This week we have been immersing our nursery for our Summer expedition ‘What happens when the sea meets the shore?’ We have been crafting jelly fish, seaweed, sand, coral reefs and underpants inspired by our hook story ‘Pirates love underpants’. We have an ice cream parlour and Pirate shack for the children to enjoy. Take a look…

Today the children enjoyed trying hot cross buns during snack time. Some children loved them, others were not so keen but we’re willing to try. We looked at the complete hot cross bun and talk about the cross symbolising Jesus in the Christian faith at Easter time. We used our senses to smell, feel, look and taste the hot cross buns. A big well done for being Can do Colin’s and trying something new Nursery Crew!

”It’s yummy!” – Mason

This week and last we are enjoying our Easter Slice. Take a look at all of the exciting Spring themed activities we have been up to so far… Spring flower perfume making, butterfly stamping, Spring garden painting, and challenging ourselves using clay rather than play dough to roll, push, nip and press our own Easter eggs. Well done Nursery Crew! You are working so hard during our Easter Slice and all of the grown ups are so proud of you!

The children had so much fun last Wednesday playing parachute games with Mrs Hardman. The children were singing songs and practising turn taking and building relationships through quality crew!

The children have been working super hard this morning learning about the letter sound ‘b’. The children have been finding objects that begin with the letter ‘b’ and tried really hard to write with chalks and on the CleverTouch.

The children celebrated Red Nose Day by dressing in red to raise money, creating sticky red collage pictures, and hunting for red objects.

A reminder that on Wednesday 13th March 1.30pm we will be hosting our Nursery celebration of learning for ‘Who is hiding in the pages of the book?’ We will enjoy some activities and sharing of our product. We will also be holding another book sale to raise funds for EYFS resources.
We look forward to you all joining us.

Thank you for your on going support in your child’s learning.
