Dear Parents and Carers,
We have had another lovely week in the nursery and here are some of our highlights:
- Our budding bakers have been busy making cheese and fruit scones, ham and cheese pastries, chocolate chip cookies and shortbread. Yum!
- Some children have been on an ‘adventure’ around the school, using positional language to talk about where they were and what they were doing. For example, ‘in the bike shelter’ or ‘under the trees’.
- The children helped move to fill our fantastic new sandpit with a delivery of sand. Exciting times!
- There’s been a growing interest in numbers and counting, prompting some children to make a number line for the garden area.
- We collected natural objects while out for a walk to use to make models and pictures to show the start of Autumn.
