This week we have been exploring all things ‘Pirate’ related! At the beginning of the week, with Mrs Coubrough, the Yellow Group made maps in bottles, went on treasure hunts and made ships using crates and some other loose parts outside. At the end of the week, we took advantage of the beautiful weather and had lots of fun with water play in the ‘Peace Garden’ where we investigated floating and sinking.

Nursery Yellow Group – Exploring Creativity
This week the Yellow Group have been very interested in using lots of different natural ‘loose parts’ to express their thoughts and ideas and create their own pictures. They were especially keen to make their own ‘Nature Pictures’ so we went on a ‘Nature Walk’ to collect lots of natural materials which they then enjoyed getting creative with.
Nursery Yellow Group – All About Bunnies!
This week, the Yellow Group have shown great interest in bunnies/rabbits and have enjoyed looking after our (pretend) Nursery Rabbit, Rosie! They have learned about how to care for a rabbit, read lots of bunny books and produced beautiful bunny pictures. The children want to extend their learning and play next week by setting up a little ‘Vet Practice’ for Rosie the Rabbit.
Nursery Mindfulness Workshop
We had lots of fun this afternoon trying out different ‘Mindfulness’ activities with our Parents/Carers. We did some Yoga and Massage before making our very own ‘Calm Jars’ and ‘Worry Dolls’. Thank you to all who attended.
Mud Kitchen Fun!
We have had lots of fun in our ‘Mud Kitchen’ this week pretending to make ‘slushies’ thanks to the cold, icy weather. We made the most of the little bit of snow that fell and enjoyed playing and experimenting with it.
