We had our trip to theÂ
🔥🚒FIRE STATION!🚒🧯
Getting to ride the bus to the station was one of the most exciting parts! we love a bus ride..... and even more so.... a double decker!!!
"We are higher up than the trees!"
When we arrived, we met some of the amazing firefighters who gave us a we talk on what the fire crew do.Â
We met Phil, Louise and Stephen. They kindly told us all about the fire station and then took us on our tours.....
We had a very good model in Ronnie and we were shown how all the different pieces of equipment keep the firefighters safe when they are tackling a fire!
Next, we split up into smaller groups, and Phil, Louise and Stephen took us round different parts of the fire station to see a variety of things... first up, the rescue boat and the support vehicle!
The megaphone was especially good fun!
'Emergencyyyyy!'
We learnt all about some amazing tools, heavy equipment, safety equipment and soooooo much more!Â
Now for the part we had all been waiting for... having a shot of the hose! We had to try and hit the cone... look at those smiles! 😃
Even Bella joined in the fun!
Future firewoman!
Great fun!
We were all chuffed that we got to sit in the fire engine with the blue emergency lights flashing! Some of us got to be 'drivers' and some of us got to sit in the 'boss seat', where Swift's dad takes his place!

Here is a couple of carousels with some more photos of our exploring around the fire station.........
Where's the firefighters?
Firemen Sams!
When we go on a nursery trip everyone is involved!
Look at how happy we all are in our big team photo.Â
We all had a great time at the fire station. A big thank you all our mummies and grandparents that came along to support us and a HUGE thank you to Kevin and the Inverness Fire Crew for hosting us.Â
Time to go back to nursery for our lunch!
Literacy and our living world.
This week we heard a story all about a chicken and her lost chicks. This got us thinking about her eggs and how she looks after them.
Look at our nursery chicken! She arrived the next day.
We've made a cosy box for her . . .Â
. . . and the next day she laid 3 eggs!
We will watch to see how long they take to hatch. Some of us think 3 days but it might take 80! We will find out how long it takes.
Meanwhile we continue to explore our caterpillar learning through following the story in The Hungry Caterpillar and using the story props to retell the story to our friends.
Our live caterpillars continue to grow and engage the children (and parents!) in their latest developments.
This week we decided on names for our caterpillars. Â The children voted on Great choices everyone!
Day 1Â Â
"they are tiny"
day 6Â
"wow, look at the size of them!"
and here is a picture of what we think the caterpillars will turn into.Â
Our May Madness Run the Field sponsored event just keeps going with the children now askingÂ
"when are we going to do our running?"Â Â
We have all been amazed at the enthusiasm they continue to show for the run and how well they motivate each other each day.
Sponsor money can be handed into nursery at any time. We will post a running total in the entrance window alongside weekly photo updates.
