What a lovely time down in the woods tonight. We have started to paint some stones to become the pieces of ladybird and bee noughts and crosses log games! We also found a furry friend who we disturbed on our walk round the woods! 🦊
Well done Amber and Nathan-Lee, two superstars!
Children enjoyed exploring our very own ‘wonderland’ this afternoon. We hunted for Alice characters that were hiding in the trees, made stick men, looked for minibeasts, had a tea party and enjoyed sharing a story in the great outdoors.
This morning the nursery children have visited the school pond. The children show fantastic investigative skills and were able to find lots of creatures that live in the pond. Jack said “ I like the tadpoles thin tails”. We also found Water Beatles, Water Snails and Damson fly nymphs. Alfie and Aliza kept on looking for a frog but we didn’t find any this time, a good reason to go back soon! Scarlett said she liked the Pond Skater the best and Nina found the biggest Newt.
What a fantastic Alice themed week we’ve been having this week!
Children all looked fantastic dressed as characters from the story yesterday and really enjoyed our visit to ‘The Rabbit Hole’.
We have also made our own eat me fruit kebabs, Queen of Hearts jam tarts and top hat biscuits.
This morning we have made personalised clay playing cards with Belinda the artist.
I can’t wait to see what the rest of the week brings!
Stage one of construction is underway and our Maya God Statues are beginning to take shape. It’s a messy job but we seem to be enjoying it. We will keep you posted on our progress this week.
In our last science club, we made delicious Scotch Pancakes, learning lots about the science of cooking.
Wow, what an exciting time we had today pond dipping! We found three newts, lots of tadpoles and pond snails, dragon fly nymphs and a really big toad! Well done to all the children for being so sensible around the pond.
Thank you Mrs Morton for our Dementia Awareness Workshop this morning. We have learned what dementia is and what we can do to help. It was really interesting learning how our brain makes connections and what happens if these connections are broken.
Three non-riders are now riding.
A huge achievement for David, Ruby and Mawgan!!!
WOW!
