What a fabulous month we have had in Nursery. We have had great fun learning all about People Who Help Us.
We have had a busy month learning about winter and have especially enjoyed our topic on birds!
Thanks to all of you who donated to this charity before Christmas. On Friday 17th December we all wore our Christmas jumpers or festive outfits.
We raised a phenomenal £735.40 so many thanks. The cheque was handed over this morning to Rebecca who came into school to represent this very worthy charity.
What a fun month we have had! We have been learning about bears and have especially enjoyed the story of ‘Goldilocks and the Three Bears’ and ‘We’re Going on a Bear Hunt’. We have explored colour mixing to make brown, painted bear pictures, made wonderful models using natural materials and lots of more.
We have had a very busy month learning about Autumn! We have enjoyed brushing up the Autumn leaves in the Nursery garden, building wonderful models outside, painting Autumn tree pictures with broccoli, making a tree for our woodland animals using cardboard boxes, cooking stewed apple which we enjoyed for our snack, carving out a pumpkin and painting pictures of it after exploring how to make orange paint and lots, lots more! Enjoy looking through the photos to see all the fun we have been up to!
This month we have had lots of fun settling into Nursery and learning all about myself. Enjoy looking through the photographs to see what we have been up to!
May brought minibeast madness to our room. We studied and discussed ladybirds, bumblebees, wasps, spiders, beetles, worms, snails and slugs. We really enjoyed our minibeast hunt and found lots hiding in dark, damp places around our playground. We created some beautiful artwork including snails and their trails and beautiful butterflies. We have also really enjoyed role playing with the dolls in our home corner and realised that there were no dolls left to push in the proms and play with outside so we decided to make some ‘bottle babies’. We collected empty plastic bottles and filled them with water, paint and glitter then glued the tops on and stuck on some eyes. We shook the bottles and were mesmerised by the beautiful patterns the paint made as it swirled around and mixed with the glistening, floating glitter! We have had so much fun playing with them and have been very imaginative in how we have used them in our play! Enjoy looking through the photographs to see all of the fun we have had.
This month we have really enjoyed our topic of fairytales, nursery rhymes and rainbows. We explored colour mixing to make each colour of the rainbow and created beautiful rainbows using playdough, paint and collage materials. We also had a rainbow day when we dressed up in different colours of the rainbow and were able to create a human rainbow. We loved reading lots of different fairytales and especially enjoyed retelling ‘The Three Little Pigs’ and ‘The Billy Goats Gruff’ stories using puppets. When outside we planted beans, after reading Jack and the Beanstalk, and are looking forward to seeing how tall they grow! We also made our own beanstalk using cardboard tubes and very carefully cut out some leaves to stick on. We had lots of fun making nature crowns by collecting leaves, petals, twigs etc.

This month it has been lovely welcoming all the children back to Nursery again. They have loved reuniting with their friends, sharing lots of fun and laughter together.
We have been learning about the joys of Spring, including, exploring flowers, baby animals and the changes of seasons as well as engaging in fun Easter activities.
Have a look and see what all we have been up to!
