Pre-School-P.S.H.E- What Do Our Bodies Need?-Making Fruit Kebabs
Today Pre-school In P.S.H.E discussed what our bodies need to be healthy. The children told me that we need to eat lots of fruit and vegetables and drink only milk and water to keep our bodies healthy because pop and sweets have too much sugar in them. The children told me they need to exercise like running, jumping and doing our P.E lessons with Mrs Corbally.
Nursery - RE - Show And Tell: Recognising Family Members And Different Family Structures
During RE this week, Nursery class looked at our different families. We started by looking at a picture of baby Jesus and his family, the children noticed and named Mummy and Daddy in the picture and showed a good understanding of Jesus' immediate family. The children then got to show everybody their own family members! They took great joy in telling their friends about the pictures on the screen and naming who they could see. Some of our friends had really BIG families with lots of people and some of our friends had small families, we even had some pictures of fur-family members.

Nursery - Literacy - 'We're Going on A Leaf Hunt'
The story Nursery class have been enjoying this week has been 'We're going on a leaf hunt'. We used the scenes from the story and a bit of imagination to go on our very own leaf hunt. The children were observant of their surroundings and found areas in the nursery garden that had similarities to our story. The children were encouraged to copy sound effects and positional language used in the story as they made different movements with their bodies. The children climbed to the top of a big hill, walked through the dark dark forest, rowed across the cold cold lake, found a house to hide from the skunk and with a bit of help from Miss Cooney, the children experienced a waterfall!

Nursery - UTW - Exploring Elements Of Routine That Happen During The Day And Night
The children in Nursery class have been working on their understanding of routine and events that happen during the day and night. The little ones selected items of interest from the basket and we discussed what the item was, what we do with it and when we might need it. The children mimicked using the items and had a good understanding on what each item was for, however It was interesting to hear how many children wear wellies to bed, haha! Nursery class really enjoyed this activity, so it will be available in provision for them to continue to explore and further support their understanding on day and night routines.

Pre- School- P.E - To Move Safely Into A Space
In our P.E lesson we have used our imagination to be wizards, creating a magic wand and broom stick. The children moved around the room using the skills we have been learning over the last few weeks. We moved our bodies fast and slow to different movements, crawling, hopping, walking and running making sure to move around the room without bumping into our friends. The children learnt to stop on the spot when the wizard said freeze. We created a magic potion and the children threw in frogs and worms (hoops) to make the potion bubble, bubble, bubble POP!
