Today we enjoyed "Hug a bear day" at The Orange Tree @ Burnaston. All of our staff and children were invited to come dressed in their PJs and to bring their favourite teddy bear.
We had a teddy bear's picnic and enjoyed some lovely stories!!
This evening we had a parent workshop where we invited parents to learn with us about the early stages of phonics. The children each borrowed a book from the nursery library to enjoy at home.
We have had a busy few weeks at nursery. As part of our parent partnership work we have been focusing on community support. We asked our preschool families to help us in organising a collection for the Mickleover food bank. This is a cause close to home as we're aware times are hard for many people at the moment and we wanted to encourage the children to think about their community.
