Week ending
Friday 15th March, 2024
Dear Families,
This week we have moved on to a new topic and have been answering our curious question 'What is the lifecycle of a butterfly?'. We have read The Very Hungry Caterpillar, acted out the life cycle of a butterfly and learned a new song!
Alongside this, we have also been very busy taking part in Science week by conducting our own science experiment!
Have a lovely weekend,
Best wishes from the Nursery Team
