Week ending 

Friday 14th October, 2022

Dear Families,

This week we have continued our learning theme of transport and the children have had a great week learning about how we can travel in the air: exploring aeroplanes, helicopters and hot air balloons. We have enjoyed playing with our small world airport and being creative making our own planes and propellers. 

If you have any questions or concerns, please let us know either at the end of the day or by asking the office to arrange a time that suits you. 

Have a lovely weekend.

Best wishes from the Nursery Team
