Nursery - Spring 2 - Week 4
Date: 17th Mar 2022 @ 12:56pm
What a very exciting time we have had in Nursery this week!
On Wednesday, there was a great buzz of excitement as we embarked on a school trip to Windmill Farm, what a truly amazing time we had. The children enjoyed seeing lots of different animals as well as feeding the lambs, handling the guinea pigs and petting the snake and Gecko and finally high fives from the tarantula. We even went on a train ride! A big thank you to all of the parent helpers, we could not have managed without you. Windmill Farm commented on how well behaved the children were and look forward to welcoming us back in the future. Well done children you truly were amazing!
This week we have celebrated British Science week, the focus for this year is ‘Growth’. To start the week during ‘Forest School’ the children became ‘Plant detectives’, we talked with the children about where they could search for plants, encouraging them to think of unusual places to look, when the children finished hunting, they talked about what they had discovered. They enjoyed thinking about how the plants got to their different locations. The children also completed a ‘Handy Gardner’ activity, in this fun activity, the children made their own handy glove greenhouses! They decided which seeds they were going to use in their glove. Carefully they popped in the seeds and watered the cotton wool. The gloves were placed onto a window. The children are spending time each day observing the plants, they will discover how seeds germinate and seedlings grow.
Finally, on Friday the children celebrated ‘Red Nose Day’, there were many different activities for the children to take part in from keep the red nose in the air to pin the red nose on the teacher! Lots of fun was had by all. If you would like to donate to Comic Relief you can do so via this direct link https://donation.comicrelief.com/cart/1YsYOwm2pHZgBUhWr8ZL13
