πŸ’ͺ✨ Fine Motor Skills πŸ’ͺ✨

Our nursery children have also been busy developing their fine motor skills this week!

From carefully using pegs to build and balance, to exploring farm puzzles and using tongs to pick up eggs – these activities help strengthen little hands and fingers, supporting early writing and everyday skills. πŸ–οΈπŸ§©πŸ₯š

We love seeing the focus, determination and big smiles as they practise their coordination and control. Well done, everyone! 🌟

World Book Day!

On Thursday, March 5th, 2026, we’ll be celebrating World Book Day! This year, in the spirit of the National Year of Reading, our theme is 'Go All in - If you’re into it, read into it'. We’re encouraging everyone to dive into their hobbies, interests, and the things that make them happy through reading!

To make it even more fun, our dress-up theme is *Wear what makes you happy*! πŸŽ‰βœ¨

Children are invited to get creative with their outfits! Here are some ideas to inspire you:

- Dress up as your favourite book character πŸ“–

- Wear cozy clothes or pjs for that perfect bedtime story vibe πŸŒ™

- Choose something that represents your hobbies, interests, favourite colours, or anything else that makes you happy! 🎨

We can’t wait to see all the amazing outfits and celebrate our love for reading together! Happy reading, everyone! πŸ˜ŠπŸ’–

5 Little Ducks Went Swimming One Day

Our Nursery children had a lovely time exploring our “5 Little Ducks” themed water tray as part of our farm learning! πŸ¦†πŸšœ

We sang “5 Little Ducks Went Swimming One Day”, practised our counting, and enjoyed scooping and pouring in our little farm pond. A fun way to build early maths skills through hands-on play! πŸ’¦πŸŒΎ

πŸ„πŸ¦†πŸ–Sorting by animal type! πŸ„πŸ¦†πŸ–

In nursery we explored different farm animals and grouped them by their type. The children looked closely at each animal, talked about what makes them the same or different, and placed them in the correct groups.

A fun, hands-on way to build observation skills, vocabulary, and early classification skills through play! 🌿✨
