Nursery Newsletter

This week we had a very some very exciting visitors join us from Exotic Explorers.  Minibeasts!  We had a very special session where we were able to hold and feel different minibeasts.  We learned a lot of amazing facts about these small creatures.

We saw millipedes, tarantulas, snails, and scorpions! 

We have also been celebrating the Queens Jubilee.  As part of our celebrations, we made our own crowns, threaded red, white, and blue pasta necklaces, and had a special snack.  We had our celebration lunch in the hall wearing our crowns!

Our new topic for our Religions around the World lessons is entitled ‘Special Places’.  We are starting this off by looking at homes as special places.  We looked at different homes from around the world (such as a yurt, a mud hut, a wooden house on stilts) and talked about what was the same ad what was different about them.  We then got into groups and made a special home for a toy animal, thinking about what each home would need.  We used a variety of construction resources, such as Lego, Duplo, Stickle Bricks, and wooden blocks.  I think the cuddly toys are very lucky to have such wonderful houses!
