In Nursery we encourage all children to be creative. We provided a range of loose parts for children to create winter scenes after looking at paintings on our computer. We are using the pictures for our cards this year. No two cards will be the same.

Today we have followed a simple map to find a new toy for Nursery. We have used lots of directional language. The children were very good at looking for clues on each photo to find the next place to look. 

We have written some safety instructions and we enjoyed sharing them with Reception class today. 

Today we used our sense of smell . We decided if we liked the smell or not and had a go at guessing what might be making the smell. We use our senses to explore and make sense of the world around us.

Look at our elephant pictures. No two are alike,just like no two children in nursery are exactly the same. We heard that God makes us all unique.

What a lot of fruit we had to share this afternoon! We made lovely healthy kebabs. The challenge was to try to make a repeating pattern with our favourite fruits.

We had a great time exploring in Dorrington Wood today. We used our senses to listen, look, feel and smell. We also collected leaves, seeds and something that felt rough. 

Today we met Harold the giraffe. He told us that food would give us energy. He talked about how important sleep was to help our bodies grow and repair themselves.

We really enjoyed learning about what our bodies needed to stay healthy when Katy from the Life Education paid us a visit on Wednesday this week.

We had a lovely time decorating biscuits and playing with our buddies. 
 

Today we helped our Reception buddies to ice and decorate a biscuit. After we had finished our decorating we were allowed to eat our creative masterpieces in the playground. 
It has been lovely to get to know our new friends and we are looking forward to meeting up again very soon.

We had a lovely morning with our friends from Nursery. We learned how to be safe in PE, how to brush our teeth correctly and used the special Glitterbug to check we were washing our hands effectively.
