Welcome to this week’s blog post.

This week in Class 1 the children were able to explore powder paints and had the opportunity to make their own paint with it.  We spoke about the texture, how thick it was and how slimy it is.

We went to Forest School on Monday, we explored creating mud paint.

The children always show interest in water play outside, we had a water tray inside.

The children have been exploring the instruments and the different sounds they make.


In Class 2 we went to music and movement on Monday, we continued playing listening games with the parachute.  The children have also practised catching a large ball and standing on one leg.

The children have started to make their postcards, hopefully we will start posting them next week.

We have been looking closely at the broad beans that we planted, they are growing taller everyday!  Over the coming weeks we will be planting more seeds.

This week we had an exciting delivery!  four boxes containing trees and hedges for us to plant, the children have placed them into water and we hope to start planting them next week.

We have been making up helicopter stories and acting them out, painting pots for Mother's day and making muffin pizza's.

 Today we went to Forest School, we had a Mummy come in to help.

 Thank you for everyone's cooperation today with washing hands on entering the setting, we will continue asking you to do this until further notice.  Please also read our email's regarding COVID 19.

 We will be offering a parent/carer drop in session on Monday 23rd March from 3pm - 3.30pm.  Please feel free to drop in and meet with the staff.

Hello and welcome to this week’s blog post.   This week we have added 20 eggs to our incubator and we now need to wait 21 sleeps (approximately) for them to hatch! Class 2 have started planting, if you can donate any seeds or plants please take an item from the wish list (on Class 1’s garden fence).   We also have a new water table and the children have been exploring this.   Some of the children wanted to find out more about nocturnal animals and used the iPad.   We also found ladybirds in the garden and added them to the bug hotel. In Class 1 the children have been role playing as fire fighters, they used spray bottles filled with water to put out the fire. They have also measured how tall the sweet peas have grown. Tomorrow the staff team will be attending Helicopter Stories training with Trisha Lee from make believe arts.   Caroline has already attended training with Trisha and the children in Class 2 enjoy making up their own stories to act out on ‘stage’.   So

Hello and welcome to this week’s blog post.   T his week we have been counting down the days waiting for the eggs to hatch.  We now need to wait 14 sleeps (approximately). Today we had a visit from some lambs and the children from both classes had an opportunity to meet them. Class 2 have some new tadpoles and the children have been watching them eat the lettuce we have fed them.  Earlier in the week, some of the children found mint in the garden and wanted to use it in the mud kitchen.  We then provided some mint in the classroom for the children to explore with scissors and mix with various media.  The children have been making pirate maps using teabags and using chalks to make marks in the garden.  We experimented with raisins and sparkling water to make the raisins dance and the children have worked together to make a river in the sand pit.  On Monday we went to the school hall for music and movement and we have spent a lot of time outside in the sunshine.  We have plan
