EYFS – Nursery

Animal Magic visited us yesterday and gave us a wonderful learning experience which generated lots of excitement and more importantly lots of talking! We met Willaby the Wallaby, Cheese and Pickle the Velveteen Bunnies and Tiny Tony the Shetland Pony. There were many other species of animal for us to pet, pat, feed and hold, and we learned …

We were so excited today because we finally got to hold the chicks!​

We came in to find 4 of our eggs had hatched overnight! By the end of today we had 7 hatchlings. We can’t wait until Monday when we can hold our chicks!

Nursery dressed up in our favourite World Book Day Characters! We read some of our favourite stories in celebration. Can you name some of the characters we dressed up as? 

We had two special guests in nursery today – Adam our governor and Reggie the Jack Russell! We learnt that Reggie likes to play fetch and eat bones. Adam taught us how to play with Reggie and how to stroke him gently. We looked after Reggie for the morning and took care of him in Ladybird Class. …

Our living eggs adventure continues! Day 2 with our eggs and the first cracks are appearing – can you see the holes? We can already hear some cheeping and we hope to meet some of our chicks tomorrow.​

Something’s got us all talking in the Nursery! We have some new visitors! Watch this space to see what happens next!​

Nursery went on a bear hunt. We went through the long wavy grass, a deep cold river, the thick oozy mud, a big dark forest and climbed a tall slippery hill. We saw bear foot prints in the mud and bear claw marks on the tree trunks! 

Nursery has been learning about 2D shapes and identifying them around the environment. We then used the shapes to build a house for Mr Gumpy from our class story.
