Den Day! We were joined by some of the Dads for a fantastic morning of den building. The children thoroughly enjoyed themselves and the dens looked amazing.
People who help us - We have been learning all about the different jobs that people do and how they can help us in our lives. On Thursday 10th June we were very lucky to have a visit from a dentist, the children found out all about what kind of foods and drinks are good and bad for their teeth and how to brush their teeth the right way. The children were each given teeth care goody bag to take home.

Celebration of the Queen's Platinum Jubilee 2022! - We have had a fantastic week learning about the Queen and her family. We opened a special letter that we received from Windsor Castle, Mrs Ledger was very excited! We wrote some invitations to our party. We had a lovely tea party where we ate cucumber sandwiches, jam sandwiches and cake off of real china plates. We ended the week with a special day where we dressed as a Royal. The highlight of the week was the song we learnt written especially for the Jubilee.
'Happy Royal Jubilee' Song!
The children have learnt a new song to celebrate the Queen's Platinum Jubilee 2022.
Watching our caterpillars grow! The children have been eagerly watching the caterpillars every day to see how they have grown and changed. It was very exciting to observe the caterpillars changing into cocoons and then emerging as beautiful butterflies. On Friday 27th May we said goodbye to the butterflies, releasing them into the wild.

Our walk around the local area. We went for a lovely walk, in groups, around the local area. We were looking for shapes and numbers. We were surprised how many shapes we can see when we are out walking. We also spotted blossom on the trees which was falling like snow. We found numbers on doors, on walls, on cars and on buses. We also took the opportunity to think about road safety.
Easter Fun! The Children went on an egg hunt in Nursery. We each counted how many eggs we had found.

This week we have been thinking about Growing. We have seen how plants grow. First with a root then with a shoot. We planted some cress to see how quickly this grows.  We played Garden Centres and made some lovely paintings inspired by the Forsythia which is growing in the Nursery garden. We also thought how people grow from babies into children.

We have painted fish, investigated real fish, made bottle fish, Jelly fish and on Friday we dressed as characters from the story.
Farm Visit - Today we had a visit from Ark Farm. The children had the opportunity to pet and look up close some sheep, goats, a dog, rabbits a donkey and a pig. The children behaved beautifully remembering that the animals would not like big voices and lots of noise.
