Summer Term Week 10

We have had a really fantastic week and we have enjoyed our annual Hungry Caterpillar Party in our back garden on Thursday and Friday afternoons. It is always a really special moment when the children sing the caterpillar song and we release the butterflies and wait for them to fly out of their homes into the fresh air. Lots of cheering and then some yummy picnic party food all taken from the story book. We hope you enjoy the photos that we took. We have had real problems with getting the blog and the photos onto the gallery so we apologise for this and hope to get the photos on soon.

In other areas of our preschool life we have been exploring the stream at the bottom of the garden and we also went out on brilliant walk to the motorway bridge and watched the lorries and even saw two trains zooming along the track as well!

The sun and moon groups have been walking about their time at home over the weekends and playing lots of football and lots of chat about the Euro championships! The children have been great at learning the names of the footballers! We have played football I spy and learnt about bridges, played poo sticks and have been magnet fishing in the leat. the children have also make up their own patterns for football shirts and made name badges practising their writing.

The Star group are getting ready to be moons and suns from September and have made bridges too, copy me movement games, more work on patterns and learning routines and first and next games. They are doing so well and we can’t wait to welcome them back in the Autumn with new friends joining them too,.

Our graduations will be held for the school starters on Thursday 15th and Friday 16th June – you should have the details you need but please do ask if you have any questions.
