Crazy Hair Day in Nursery B
We’ve had some very creative hairstyles for the PTA’s ‘Crazy Hair Day’.
Nursery's Visit to Church
Today we visited Church and looked at the Easter display showing the cross and Jesus’s tomb. This reminded us of the different bible stories we have read about Jesus throughout our topic ‘To the Ends of the Earth’. We also looked at the baptismal font and talked about our own baptisms.

Fruit salad
The children have made fruit salads this week! First, we explored fruits and vegetables and the difference between them. We then carefully prepared melon, pineapple, strawberries, banana and tangerines to add to our own fruit salad!
Fruit lollies
Fruit lollies were a perfect choice to make on our warm week in nursery A. The children used cutting skills to prepare the soft fruit and distributed them into ice lolly moulds, after calculating how much fruit we would need. After that the children practised their pouring by adding water before…
Self service snack time

Planting flowers in our prayer garden
We have tidied up our prayer garden and planted some sunflowers! We can’t wait to watch them grow. The children have been watering them each day.
Dinosaur Footprints in Nursery B
This week the children are exploring colour and colour mixing using paints and dinosaurs to create footprint patterns. When they have finished their patterns, they are bathing the dinosaurs in warm soapy water.
It’s a Wrap!
As part of our learning about food in nursery this week we have made our own wraps. We had a variety of fillings to choose from to create our perfect taste sensation. We had to think carefully about how much filling to use. Too many and the wrap will fall apart, too few and the wrap may be…
VE Day
The children have been learning all about VE Day and why we celebrate it. We have been colouring our own Union Jack flags and role playing having a picnic!
Reception Farm Trip
Reception had a brilliant time visit Windmill Animal Farm last week. We had lots of fun playing in the park, feeding lots of animals and held some amazing critters!
