On World Book Day, Thursday 5th March, we celebrated in the nursery by wearing book character outfits and we raised money with our sponsored Spring Walk which we will use for new books in the nursery. In the afternoon some P.6 pupils came to the nursery and read stories to the children which everyone enjoyed.
Sponsored Spring Walk
The nursery children went out on World Book Day for a sponsored Spring walk. We were looking for signs of Spring as we walked along. We saw daffodils, crocuses, blossom and new leaves beginning to grow. We were all dressed up for World Book Day as our favourite book characters. We hope to use the money we raise to buy more books for the nursery. It was a lovely day and the sun was actually shining!
Have a look at our Spring pictures and our amazing book character costumes.
Christmas in the Nursery
“It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas” in the nursery. We have been making Christmas decorations and hanging them on the Christmas tree. Some of the children have been working in our Santa’s workshop and helping Santa by making Christmas presents. We have been writing letters to Santa and posting them in the post box. We have been making Christmas trees and Christmas stockings and there have been sparkles everywhere! We have been estimating lengths of paper and decorating our own Christmas wrapping paper and wrapping up presents that can be found under our Christmas tree.
We have been listening to lots of stories and have been dressing up and making up our own stories too. We have been practising our Christmas songs and will be singing them for the parents next week. We are looking forward to our Christmas parties on Thursday 19th and we hope a special visitor might be able to come and join us.
We wish everyone a happy Christmas, from all of us in the nursery.
Halloween
We had a lot of fun in the nursery this Halloween. Check out our slideshow!
Autumn Walk
In the nursery we have been talking about the season of Autumn and what we can see around us that tells us it’s Autumn time. We have been collecting conkers, berries, seeds and leaves and studying them with the magnifying glasses in the nursery.
So today we all went for a walk around Figgate Park to see what Autumn treasures we could find and to look at the Autumn colours. In the morning the whole nursery went out, including the Two’s room. The afternoon group went out later this afternoon as well and found lots of things that show us it really is Autumn!
