The children have enjoyed a selection of stories linked to Easter with the themes of new beginnings, eggs and learning about the Christian Easter Story. They particularly enjoyed this story: We’re Going on an Egg Hunt, which has a similar theme with repetitive language to We’re going on a Bear Hunt.

Nursery rhyme of the week

This week the children continued to learn Hot Cross Buns, here are the lyrics:

Hot cross buns!

Hot cross buns!

One ha’ penny, two ha’ penny,

Hot cross buns!

If you have no daughters,

Give them to your sons

One ha’ penny,

Two ha’ penny,

Hot Cross Buns!
