Cultural Celebrations

Nursery have had a great time learning about other cultures and traditions recently. We shared photos of Scotland when speaking about Burns Day and enjoyed listening to Mr McLucas play the bagpipes. They were a little different from the percussion instruments the children have been using recently and made a very loud noise! They tapped and clapped to the rhythm and enjoyed listening to the different pace of the songs. The children even tried haggis and potatoes for a snack, this was  very popular and lots of children asked for more!

This week we have started to look at how Chinese New Year is celebrated and have been practicing using our chopsticks already. The children have started to use their scissor skills to make some fantastic lanterns and help decorate our home corner.


"I like haggis. Can I have some more?" Pippa
" You blow the bagpipes really really hard!" Ayana
" Chopsticks are a bit tricky aren't they, I put the bowl close to me." Chloe
