Autumn

21st October 2022J Parker

What a busy week! First, we listened to the story about the Enormous Turnip!  Then we used our senses to explore a real turnip at small group time.  This prompted a discussion around healthy foods, which are good for our bodies.  The next day we decided to chop a variety of vegetables to make some delicious vegetable soup!  Finally, we used the left over vegetable to make vegetable prints using Autumn coloured paints! We discovered that the vegetables made very different shapes!

Outdoor Exploration

20th September 2022J Parker

During our first week in nursery we have been exploring the outdoors.  We wear our waterproof trousers to help keep us dry and allow us to explore without getting too wet!  Children were able to explore, develop confidence in the environment, develop gross and fine motor skills and so much more.

Balancing and developing confidence

Hand eye co-ordination and concentration

Playing alongside others and making friends

Having fun!

Online Safety

16th September 2022J Parker

Message from Northumbria Police

We believe that prevention is better than cure, and the earlier we speak to children about how to stay safe online, the better. Parents and carers have a crucial role to play in this.
Parents can be directed to this link Keeping children safe online / NSPCC where they will find advice on parental controls, apps, online gaming, and more.
