March-April 2023

Food for thought...

The children have been very busy planting wheat in the nursery. This has encouraged conversations to help us understand how bread is made. 

We look forward to eventually harvesting the wheat to grind down to make our own flour for bread...watch this space!

Junk Modeling

One of our most popular areas in the nursery is the junk modelling table. The children have been using various materials to make decorations, cards for Eid and explore their own creativity when using junk modelling. They used domes and other shapes to design a mosque when discussing the celebrations of Eid and how we celebrate in different religions. 

We need your help...

We are looking for materials and interesting objects for our creative and discovery areas and would appreciate any donations.

The following are some examples of what we could use: 

• newspaper/magazine

• egg cartons

• small jars

• small cardboard boxes

• fabric

• stones

• buttons

• bottle lids or tops

• or any similar loose parts

Learning Journals 

Just a friendly reminder to all parents to please return Learning Journals to the nursery. Thank you! :) 

The children loved having parents and grandparents visit the nursery for our Stay and Play sessions...
