Yesterday, the nursery held an open day giving parents and carers the opportunity to ‘stay and play’ and engage in technologies based learning experiences with their children both indoors and out. The children thoroughly enjoyed giving everyone a guided tour and showing them all of the different things they do in nursery. Parent’s and carers were also given the opportunity to provide feedback on their experience, which was all very positive. Staff were delighted to welcome so many parents and carers to this session and would like to thank everyone for their continued support. Our next open day will be held on  Monday 20th of February 2017. The theme for this day will be Mathematics and Numeracy, as chosen by our Consultative Committee.

The children have been learning about hibernation in the nursery.  We learned about animals that hibernate and created pictures of these animals.  We then played a card sorting game where we sorted animals into two groups: animals who do hibernate and animals who don’t.  We then sorted these into a chart in our big book.
