Nursery - Spring 2 - Week 1

Date: 23rd Feb 2022 @ 11:06am

We hope you all had a lovely half term holiday and my what a windy start we have had to this week!

This week we began our new theme ‘Pirates’ based around the story, ‘Pirates are coming!’ by John Condon. The children could not believe their eyes when pirates visited the classroom and left them a trail of clues to find the treasure and join the pieces together revealing the front cover of the story! The children have also enjoyed bringing into school a small egg box with their very own treasures hidden inside. They were very excited to show and talk about their treasures with their friends. There have also been many different pirate themed activities around the classroom. The children have loved playing with our Pirate small world and even making a pirate face using a paper plate and different craft materials. They then created a pirate name to match their pirate picture!

On Wednesday, the children headed to Forest school. This week the children enjoyed exploring the outdoor classroom looking for signs of spring. The children noticed lots of different flowers and were able to talk about the different parts of a flower. The children were very careful where they walked as we discussed the importance of not trampoling on the plants as they start to grow!  Don’t forget to keep your eye on twitter for updates from our Forest school adventures!

On Wednesday, we went to St Peter’s Church for our WOW service. Caroline and Anne led this, they talked all about the meaning of Lent. Thank you both for your hard work. Please note the next WOW service will be Easter Bonnett on Thursday 31st March.

We hope you all have a lovely weekend,

Mrs Bevin, Mrs Molloy and the Nursery team
