Something has arrived in the Nursery classroom – the children have been trying to guess what it might be used for. Do you know?

Living science in Nursery
Before the Easter break, Nursery were learning about growing plants and placed some beans in bags along with wet tissue around the classroom. Some children chose to tape their bags to the windows, others under tables and some in the dark cupboard. Now we have returned from our break we have noticed that there have been changes in the bags. Not all changes looked the same and we tried to think why? We noticed the bean in the dark cupboard, initially grew quickly but without light it has turned black. Some of the beans must have been too wet, because they have rotted. The best were the ones that were taped to the windows.
Outdoor Learning in Nursery and Reception
Nursery and Reception enjoyed learning in the outdoor environment today. They built a den, devised an obstacle course and developed their skills of rolling hoops.
Nursery have an Easter hunt
This morning, Nursery worked in pairs to find Easter pictures that had been hidden in the EYFS garden.
Nursery get ready for writing!
During our Fit in Five running this morning, we stopped at each lap to mark make within the school grounds. We’re getting our muscles ready for writing!
Learning in EYFS
This morning Nursery and Reception had a busy morning learning in the lovely sunshine. Whittling sticks, building, cooking in the mud kitchen, water exploration and planting bulbs. Can’t wait to do it all again tomorrow!
Nursery celebrate World Book Day
Nursery had a lovely morning celebrating World Book Day with an alien theme today. We read nursery favourites: Aliens Love Underpants by Claire Freedman & Ben Cort, There’s An Alien in Your Book by Tom Fletcher and The Smeds and the Smoos by Julia Donaldson & Alex Scheffler. The children drew their own aliens on bookmarks, designed alien headbands and created an alien with salt dough. #World Book Day @ClaireFreedman @TomFletcher @JuliaDonaldson

Spring arrives in Nursery
Nursery this term are observing the changes that happen in Spring. We have been monitoring tulip bulbs growth daily and drawing and painting pictures of tulips. Today we compared the colours and shapes of daffodils to tulips and predicted what will happen to the daffodils when we add food colouring to the daffodils water. We will watch closely and see if we were right!
