It's been another busy week here in the nursery.

We have had a couple of lovely visits this week and the sun has been shining too.

Here a few pictures so you can see some of what has been happening this week.

We had great fun with big art outside this week.

It was time for some painting fun while riding on the bikes and scooters!

Lots of super balancing work again this week as the children used the loose parts to create their own obstacle course. 

Following on from the children's interest in stories and Lycra games we had a super Book Bug Visit on Tuesday morning. 

Don't worry if your child wasn't in on Tuesday, we have more visits in the planning. 

Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star.....

The boys and girls who were in on Tuesday afternoon enjoyed some Lycra games in the school library too.

We plan to visit the school library next week again as many of the children were keen to explore the books.

Time for some stories with Sally from Book Bug.

Making links with our local community, we have been very busy painting stones in the art room.

'Stromness Rocks' is a fantastic idea that many people are buzzing around trying to hide and find at the moment.

The idea is that you can paint or draw on a stone to decorate them in any way you wish. Then you hide the stone for others to find.

They have their own facebook page which is full of posts of people finding and hiding stones.

Here are some of the children painting their stones.

What a fantastic idea to get the children out and about!

Some of the stones were sent home on Friday and we have lots more ready to pop in trays.

Happy hunting and decorating!

Science Fun!

Some of the children were keen to learn more about Volcano's.

Here are some of the children helping to make volcano's on Thursday.

We loved adding the ingredients and waiting for the reaction.

We loved to watch as the bubbles and fizz poured over the bottle volcano!

We have also been busy learning about how to keep safe while crossing the road.

We painted our own pedestrian crossing and roads outside. 

We remembered to hold hands while we crossed the road.

We looked left and right and looked for the cars.

We used our ears too to listen to any vehicles. 

We had a super visit from Sheila our school crossing patrol officer on Friday.

Pop back soon again to see some pictures of our super visit.
