Today we visited Formby Beach and Pinewoods.  We linked our visit to the book The See Saw by Tom Percival.  The children had a little picnic and time to play in the sand.  We spent time walking, talking, climbing, digging, rolling, laughing and singing! There were some very sleepy children on the…

This morning the children went on a little adventure to Formby Beach and Pinewoods. They had a wonderful time exploring the outdoors and collecting shells, pebbles and pinecones. The strong winds only added more excitement to our trip. Well done children for your exemplary behaviour and for being…

The children have been building together using wood and crates. They were very imaginative creating an obstacle course, a fire truck and then a helicopter. There was lots of balancing, jumping and travelling. Great teamwork!

Well done to all the children for taking part in Sports Day today. They all had lots of fun and got involved in different races including egg and spoon, obstacle and relay. You were all little stars!

The children love making play dough with an adult at the start of the week.  Lately the children have been using shells and pebbles to enhance their creations. 

We have been working hard to maintain our garden in nursery.  We have a mixture of plants, flowers, fruit and vegetables growing.  Look carefully at the labelled pebbles to see the selection including, sunflowers, beetroot, lettuce, onions, radishes, cress, sweetcorn, courgettes and strawberries.…

Some of the children in Nursery A have been busy mixing, pouring, creating and enhancing today.  They decided that they would like to make their own nursery perfume.  They added vanilla and cinnamon to the water, glitter and daisy flower recipe to create their own fragrance.…

Over the past few weeks we have opened a preteen ice-cream shop outside nursery.  The children have loved playing shop, requesting their favourite favours and toppings, writing down orders, giving money and change and creating imaginary tasty treats.  Today it was time to do it for real!  What a…

Today some of our nursery children worked together to order the number squares 1 to 10. Lots of number conversations could be heard!
