Week ending
Friday 23rd February, 2024
Dear Families,
We hope you all had a wonderful and relaxing half term. We have begun a new theme of learning this week - the Amazon Rainforest. The children have loved learning about the rainforest, exploring our small world tray, searching for rainforests using google maps and making their own trees to go in their class rainforest display.
They have also enjoyed getting to know our very special sensory board which was installed over the holidays!
Have a lovely weekend,
Best wishes from the Nursery Team
