Big Chef, Little Chef 👨‍🍳

Our babies had fun making easter biscuits with our chef Bryan, they looked adorable in their aprons!

The babies used their fine motor skills when holding the whisk to mix all of the ingredients together in the bowl, they then spread out their dough to use the cutters to create their easter biscuits developing their hand-eye coordination skills.

It's clear to see we have had a very GREEN week! 💚

Some of our many green activities have included sewing seeds in recycled pots, making our own green boat using a large box, observing the growth of the beans in the mini greenhouses and many more fun exciting activities and experiences for the children to engage in! 🪴🪹🪵

⭐️ Inset Day ⭐️

We started off with some training around ‘motivating boys’, which helped the staff to recognise and identify different teaching methods best suited for boys to help enable them to learn and develop new skills in an enjoyable and engaging way. Following on from this, the staff decided to look at their room provision and have a move around and make more defined and cosy areas.

We also did a fun team building challenge, where the staff worked in groups with people they don’t usually work with and they had to build a tower using marshmallows and spaghetti, the tallest tower won a prize.
Teamwork really does make the dream work 👏🏻👌

We then had the wonderful Katie from keep signing come and teach us all some Makaton signs that we can use daily and incorporate with our routines, we can’t wait to start teaching the children what we have learnt 👐

Finally, the staff were giving a budget and sent out in their rooms to go and find some new resources for the nursery and when they returned they had to explain what the ‘Intent’ of each resource was.
We are excitied to share these with the children this week. 🥰

Science Week 🧪🧫🌡

It’s safe to say we have had a fun filled science week with lots of experiments taking place across the nursery each day, the children have thoroughly enjoyed each experiment and the learning intentions have exceeded their expectations, we have lots of mini scientists within our mists. 🔬⚗️

Our babies had fun exploring the dinosaur fizzing tray using pipettes to collect the liquid supporting the development of their fine motor skills, they also enjoyed observing the changes within their “storm in a jar” experiment.

The toddlers carried out the skittle experiment, they were amazed at the patterns it created in the finished result, they had fun taking part in a fizzing ice tray, freeing the sea animals, and observing the changes to the ice cubes as they melted and fizzed in the tray.

Our pre-schoolers had an exciting science week taking part in a range of experiments including making their own slime using chia seeds and observing the changes in each process, they also carried out the skittle experiment using different liquids and noticing the difference in changes in each one used, each child created their own “storm in a jar” using pipettes to activate the process. They experimented with making a red lava lamp potion to display within their room and lastly, in the garden they carried out the “volcano” experiment taking turns with each step and observing the intended outcome.
