OUT & ABOUT

Today we have been enjoying the glorious sunny weather by playing football on the school field. 

 

Whilst outside some of the children filled a few buckets of water up, then we discussed what things may sink and float and they made their prediction before trying.  They found out shells 'sink' and small round bark pieces 'float'

We watched the raisins dance in a glass of lemonade and discussed what was making them dance and why.  It was great seeing the dancing raisins experiment and hearing what the
children thought what might happen next!

Lastly we unwrapped our newly delivered caterpillars, took a sneaky peek at them and left them quietly to grow, whilst discussing what is going to happen to them over the coming weeks.

At Broadway Playschool the children are gradually getting used to being in a pre-school environment and away from their parents. They too are enjoying getting outside and playing in the sand and on the bikes.

 

WECLOME BACK TO THE SUMMER TERM !

Hope you all had a lovely Easter.

We started back to lovely spring weather – REMINDER that your child will need a sun hat each dayand sun screen on before they attend.

This term we are doing experiments, building dens and looking at mini beasts- the caterpillars are on order !

We have been busy painting pictures of daffodils and spring flowers and making our initials out of cress. The grass heads at home have grown well and the children report enjoying cutting their grass head’s hair !

The new children have settled well into Towerview Playschool – our rolling a ball to each other and saying our names game has supported this transition.

At Broadway Playschool the new children to the 2-3 group to seemed to settle well and we're all looking forward to getting to know them and their families.

It has been good to get outside with plenty of sand play- block building and whizzing around on the bikes and scooters.
