All Things Autumn

We are so proud of The Nest children, the way that they have settling into the routine with great success.

The children have participated in a wide range of activities and interventions. During music time, the children have really enjoyed using the musical instruments. They have also enjoyed making and sharing a cup of fruit tea with the adults.

We have been exploring the feel, smell and taste of cucumber during our food tasting session over this fortnight.

Autumn

The children went on an autumn walk with their parents over the weekend and shared what they found with Miss Crane and their friends. We explored all the different items that they collected, some were spikey and some were shiny. The children have also enjoyed sharing the story 'Autumn' by Ailie Busby, especially the part were the character shares jam tarts with their friend. The children then done some baking with Miss Crane, making their own jam tarts to take home and share with their family.
