Story Morning

It was lovely to be joined by so many parents at our annual Story Morning this week.  We are passionate about reading at Nursery, and base our learning around stories whenever we can, and we really enjoyed having the chance to share the experience with our Nursery families.  After reading one of our favourites, ‘You Choose’, together, we took our parents to explore some of the different ‘You Choose’-related activities on offer, creating some fabulous hats, choosing our dream pets, and building our ideal homes.  Lots of us spent time looking at the stories from the Nursery ‘story spine’ together, too.  We were lucky enough to be joined again by Sheila, from Wymondham Library, who was able to help families with joining the library and making the most of all it has to offer.

New additions to our garden

Over the half term break, Phase Two of our garden redevelopment has been completed.  We now have an amazing sand and water area, giving the children so many opportunities for exploration, motor skill development and problem-solving, and a beautiful pebbled ‘beach’, providing different natural textures and lots of sensory stimulation.  The children have already been making the most of the new additions, as you can see!

An exciting visitor!

This morning we were visited by Sharon, the Community Champion from Morrisons Supermarket in Wymondham.  She brought with her an extremely generous donation of toys from their new wooden toy range.  We are now the proud owners of a beautiful wooden till and four trays of wooden food, which will really enhance our imaginative role play.  Thank you Morrisons!
