Summer Fun

The hot weather has finally arrived and we are very much enjoying this in Nursery! Just a reminder to please apply sun cream before your child's sessions and bring in a sunhat. Ensure water bottles are filled and labelled. Please bring a few extra changes of clothes in a carrier bag for any enthusiastic water play. If you have any crocs/jelly shoes at home your child may wear these for the sessions as long as they have a strap on the back, please no flip-flops. 

Water Play 

The lovely weather has allowed us to fully enjoy our water area outside in Nursery. The children have had socks and shoes off and have enjoyed splashing through the area. The water play is a fantastic sensory experience, the children have been playing well co-operatively and the pouring and filling also supports the development of hand/eye co-ordination. 

Library Trip 

Thank you to the parents who were able to support our trip to the library this week. The children were very resilient walking in the heat and enjoyed their time in the library looking at their chosen books and sharing stories together. 

Our younger 2 year olds had their first visit to our school library too. They enjoyed looking at the stories in school and particularly enjoyed using the puppet theatre and meeting our school reading dog Theo. 

Role Play

The children have enjoyed the hairdresser role play station this week. They have been busy working together to comb, brush and style hair. We enjoyed sharing pictures of some children's trips to the hairdressers. The activity supported the children to take turns and develop their language skills.
