Who am I? - Autumn first half term 

This half term we have enjoyed finding out about ourselves and our family.

Care for your bear day - Thursday 3rd October 2019

Today the children came to nursery dressed in home clothes with a teddy bear.  Each child donated £1 to raise funds for Birmingham Children's Hospital.  A big Thank you goes out to you all.

The children were introduced to Values Bear who they will be taking home during the year, each half term has a Value which is focused upon. The children helped to create a large Values Bear for our display and had fun with the teddy bear's picnic, matching bowls and plates etc to the different sized bears.  Some of the children created bears from different sized circles and some practised holding a pen to carefully follow the dotted lines on a bear outline.

Arts Week in Nursery

During Arts Week, the we all had lots of fun producing pieces of art on a both large and small scale.  The children  explored different medium to create different effects.  We used the festival of Diwali  to focus upon focusing particularly on colour and light.  

Autumn Week 

Our focus this week was looking for signs of Autumn and Bonfire night.

Wheels, Wings and Water Spring first half term 

This half term we have enjoyed finding out about different types of transport and their uses.

Vehicle Workshop 2020

A successful workshop was held for parents and children.  The challenge for the session was to make a transport model.  The children (and parents) were very creative and lots of imagination was needed to make some fantastic models.  The children made cars, emergency vehicles, trains and even rockets.  A big thank you goes out to all those who attended and the nursery staff hope that everyone had a lovely time!

World book day 5th March 2020

The children came in to Nursery dressed as their favourite book character.  All the children looked wonderful and were able to say who they were.
