The children have been working together in the mud kitchen making mud soup using our natural resources.

The children have had lots of fun playing and exploring outdoors. In music we have been learning about percussion instruments so the children wanted to hear the sounds the tractor tyre could make. They have also been using the trees to play hide and seek.  

This week we are learning about the work of Andy Goldsworthy known as Nature’s Artist.  Inspired by his work we have been using a variety of natural materials to create faces and patterns.  

This morning the children worked with Enrich Education to find the different animal markers around our school. We enjoyed making the various animal noises and talking about where we would find these animals in our environment.

The children in nursery have been learning about autumn and have collected lots of autumnal treasures. We have had fun outdoors looking for more signs of autumn, finding mini-beasts, dancing in the wind with our scarves and reading in the sunshine. 

In RE we have been thanking God for our wonderful world. This week we went for a walk around our school and talked about what we could see.

The children in Nursery A have been trying out our new waterproofs today. So much fun!

Look at the train we made in nursery this week using brilliant teamwork skills and language to create this collaborative masterpiece! Well done children!

Some of the children have been keen to find out about the different birds they might see in the nursery garden.  

Here are some of our nursery children enjoying snack together.  Snack time in nursery invites us to turn take, communicate, listen and sometimes try different foods.  We develop independence by choosing our own snack and by washing up our own plates and cups when we have finished.  

This week we have had lots of fun playing and learning with our friends. We have begun to make a music wall outdoors using pans, spoons and bells. Inside we are playing in our home corner - having tea parties and going shopping. 

This week we are looking at different colours and sorting colours into groups. At home we are talking about our favourite colours and drawing pictures to share with our friends.
