Hansel and Gretel workshop

17th November 2025Amy Woods

Wow, what an amazing morning we have had today! We were so lucky to have Kerry and Tash come in from CAST Theatre, to teach us the story of Hansel and Gretel, through drama. The children enjoyed getting into the roles of the different characters and exploring props. Once we had finished we went back to the create doughnuts, for the gingerbread house flooring, which we will see in CAST theatre when we go to visit. We are so excited to go and work with Kerry and Tash again at CAST theatre in a couple of weeks, and watch the performance of Hansel and Gretel.
Mrs Williams was so proud of how well everyone participated in this workshop, and the great respect and integrity all children showed towards our visitors. Well done nursery!

Hedgehog Clay Making

6th November 2025Joshua Meade

Today, we deepened our knowledge about hedgehogs. We learnt that hedgehogs are nocturnal meaning they are only awake and move around at night time in the dark. Other vocabulary we used included camouflage and predators. I wonder if the children can explain what the hedgehogs have to protect themselves? We then used our D&T skills to create clay hedgehogs. Look at those sharp spines! #LovePlover

Where do we live?

15th October 2025Amy Woods

This week we have been looking at a place that is special to us; our homes. We went on a walk around the perimeter of the school to look at the different types of houses we could see. We learnt lots of big words such as: semi detached, bungalow, terrace and flats.

When we got back to the classroom we used our creative skills to paint pictures of our own house. There was some beautiful artwork!
