Holidays

This week we have been learning about holidays and reading holiday related stories.

In Maths we had to use our problem solving skills and find as many ways as possible to decorate a sandcastle using 6 shells. We were very impressed that some of the children wanted to record their findings in different ways by drawing and writing numbers.

The children have loved exploring floating and sinking in the Discovery Area. They have had some great theories about why some things float for example because of gravity, they do or don't have holes, they are big or small or hard or soft. Take a look in our Science Investigation book for more comments and photos.

All the children had ice lollies on Friday because it was so hot.

The children have been really enjoying the outside play because the weather had been so nice. They have enjoyed building sandcastles in the sandpit. They have used the den building area to create pathways and dens in the trees.

In P.E. the children have started learning a dance to the 'Ugly Bug Ball.' The children enjoyed finding different ways of moving to be different bugs and copying dance moves from Mrs Chadwick and Mrs Keith.

Next week we will be continuing to think about holidays and moving to our new classes and schools.

On Monday please come along to Open Evening from 5.00pm to 7.00pm. You will have an opportunity to look at the wonderful things your child has been doing in Nursery this year and go and look around the other classes in the school.

On Thursday it is our transition morning when the children will spend some time in their new Reception classes.

On Wednesday 19th July the children will have their final sharing assembly. The morning performance is at 9.05 and the afternoon performance is at 2.45.
