Last week The Story Fairy sent us Whatever Next to read together. A brilliant story about a little bear who goes to the moon in a cardboard box rocket. We made our own rockets out of paper and pretended to go to the moon in cardboard boxes. We also talked about fireworks and made beautiful…
This week The Story Fairy sent us Aaaarrgghh, Spider by Lydia Monks to read together. So we have had lots of spider fun! We have played with pretend spiders, made sparkly webs with lots of glue and glitter, sang Incy Wincy Spider and made spiders out of playdough with lots and lots of legs and…
Pre-school have had a brilliant start to the new school year. Our new children have settled in and our returning children are being brilliant role models to their new friends. So far this term we have been digging up our potatoes, making animal masks, saying hello to our hamster Jo and having lots of fun…
Today Clair’s daughter Lauren, who is a Biologist, visited us to take the children on a bug hunt in the forest. We turned over logs and found some amazing insects including some big black beetles, earth worms, woodlice, spiders, millipedes, slugs and snails. We had lots of fun searching the forest and put all the…

In pre-school we were very lucky to have some chicken eggs to hatch. We watched the eggs hatch, the children were fascinated that such a big chick could fit into such a small egg. Then we looked after the chicks and watched them grow. All the children got to stroke a chick and we even…
What a fun week we’ve had! We made the most of the sunshine to do some climbing and balancing. Practicing our gross motor skills is so important. We planted up our runner beans, we are hoping they grow as tall as the beanstalk in Jack and the Beanstalk! The children also played with spring flowers…
