In Nursery we love to create transient art. 'Transient art' is art that is not permanent - art without glue! We use natural and man-made objects to create patterns and pictures. These can be adapted, added to, photographed and then put away again. Have a look at some of our creations:
Autumn 2020
We have been thinking about Autumn at Nursery and doing lots of activities linked to the season.
Start of the Year 2020
We have been settling back in to a new (and a little bit of a different) academic year at Nursery! We are enjoying making new friends and exploring the different areas of the Nursery and its resources.
Start of the Year 2019

We have been doing lots of mark making in Nursery, practising different handwriting patterns. We have drawn circles, lines and loops.
Spring Term 2019
We welcomed some new friends to our Nursery class and we have been helping them to settle in.
Christmas 2018
We had a busy time at Nursery in the run up to Christmas! As well as talking about Christmas, doing Christmas crafts and playing with special toys in Nursery, we went down to the garden centre to buy a Christmas tree for our classroom and all helped to decorate it. We learnt the story of the Nativity and performed 'Born in a Barn' to parents, carers, family and friends. We finished off the term with Christmas parties.
Autumn 2018
We learned all about what happens in Autumn time. Our Morning Class went on a 'welly walk' down to the Rec to look for signs of Autumn.
Start of the Year 2018
We are settling back into Nursery. We are having lots of fun making friends and playing with all the toys!
Sports Day
We had good fun at Sports Day today and we all ran 'like the wind'.

Summer Term Topic
We have been finding out about jungle animals- which kinds live in the rainforest and which live on Africa's plains. We have made a jungle role play area and now we are safari vets- looking after the animals. We have been listening to the story- Handa's Surprise . Here are some photos of our topic......

Cantref Outing
What a fantastic day we had at Cantref Farm! We especially enjoyed playing on the soft play, the tractor ride and feeding the lambs. Here are some photos from our day.........
Our topic is Growth- last week we visited Turners' Garden Centre to find out about how they grow all their plants and trees. Mr and Mrs Turner showed us the plants in their tunnels and all the other products they sell. We chose a lavender bush to plant in our sinks in the nursery garden. They gave each child a plant pot and sunflower seed to grow a sunflower at home. We will have a competition to see who can grow the tallest sunflower.Thank you for telling us all about the plants. Happy growing time!
Here are some photos of our visit.........

Happy Easter!
