A busy few weeks in Nursery

17th Oct 2025

The Nursery children have really thrived since coming together in one big group. Take a look at the photos to see the learning that has taken place.

Amongst other things the children have ...

- been exploring floating and sinking outdoors
- exploring how water changes sand and chalks
- investigating how to move water
- drawing pumpkins from observation
- using stickers and the interactive panel to respond to the work of Pumpkin artist Yayoi Kusama
- building constructions using the loose parts
- using tongs to move pompoms and spiders

- balancing and walking with one foot in front of each other
- sorting and counting spiders


As you can see there has been lots of fun and learning. We can't wait to do it all again next week!
