Dates 

22nd October - Visit from the author of 'The Leaf Hunt' to Nursery. 

Half Term - Nursery is closed for half term on the week beginning the 28th November. 

The children come back to Nursery on Tuesday 5th November (Closed 4th November for staff training). 

Wednesday 6th November - Nursery Stay and Play - Parents are invited to join us for a session focused on Communication and Language and developing early literacy. 

The children have enjoyed developing their fine motor skills and hand eye co-ordination using golf tees and pumpkins this week. They had to carefully use wooden hammers to tap the tees in and had to hold the golf tee with one hand to steady this. 

Last week the children discovered ladybird larva outside. This week we discovered more ladybirds flying. To help the children understand how they have grown and changed we added pictures of the stages of growth to our outside area. 

In the mark making areas we are exploring pattern and shape. The children are being encouraged to control their pencils and pens to make shapes. 

In the art area the children have been using paint and collage to create their own pumpkins. They have enjoyed exploring texture and learning how to twist and use glue to stick materials on their creations.
