Nursery

Nursery have been here, there and everywhere within the school grounds for science week.  We have used the viewfinders to look at snails, plants and mud.  We explored the wild area on the field and collected different size sticks and used our investigating skills relating to forces in the playground pushing cars.  So we are all budding scientist.  A big welcome to Grace and Warren who have recently joined afternoon nursery.  Thank you to those of you who have supported your children with the home learning .  It was lovely seeing all  the different activities.  Next week we are starting our seaside topic and will be looking at seasonal clothing.

We have had lots of fun in Science week. We have been outside every day. Some of the activities we have done have been, looking at friction using various surfaces around the school, shaking trees and collecting what has fallen out to make a pictogram, doing a bird watch, a guest speaking talking about bees, using coordinates following a map of the school grounds, identifying tress in the school grounds, making a fantasy creature and a visit from Essex wildlife trust.

We have been having a brilliant time in Science Week this week. Some of our activities have included bird watching, tree rubbings, friction experiments and creating senses poems.

The children have really enjoyed the opportunities to work out side in the lovely weather and have shown some great team work skills. We hope the good weather stays with us so we can get outside even more!


On Tuesday the children completed in some 4Sports activities and have learnt an exciting new team game. Ask them to tell you about it!
