Cygnets Nursery

These last couple of weeks in cygnets have been full of lots of different activities and also celebrating Chinese New year. The last two weeks we have been reading The Very Hungry Caterpillar book, we have focused on key vocabulary which has included "cocoon" , "life cycle" and "butterfly". The children have enjoyed various activities linked to the book like looking at the life cycle of a caterpillar, making our very own class caterpillar and talking about food which is unhealthy and healthy to us. 

We have enjoyd lots of time out in the garden using the bikes and making obstacle courses. The children have also had the opportunity to explore with ice play. 

In Cygnets we have been busy preparing for Christmas. The children have enjoyed making Christmas crafts, we have explored the story of the gingerbread man using dough and flour. The children have been learning new Christmas songs and actions, they have been becoming more familiar with the songs and actions each week. We are sure many of you have noticed some of these. 

We have been celebrating lots of birthdays, singing to our friends and blowing out the candles. We hope all of our children have had lovely birthdays. 

Next week we will be having a special visitor-Santa.
