Nursery Autumn 2025

This week in Nursery we completed the dragon’s quest to rescue the princess. During this quest we had to balance on the stepping stones, crawl through the thorny forest, tip toe past the dragon and rescue the princess. On Friday we enjoyed a ‘ Magical Kingdom Day’. We danced in the hall, played party games, made crowns and enjoyed a royal feast.

We have had a magical adventure in Nursery this week. Our journey began when we received a special letter from King Rolo. He sent us a quest to find the correct key to his treasure chest and once our quest was complete, we could keep what was inside. We also enjoyed acting out fairy tales in our magical kingdom.

Nursery have been learning all about Remembrance Day. We found out that people wear red poppies to remind them of the brave soldiers who fought in the war. We talked about how the purple poppy is worn to remember all the animals who were in the war. We made some giant poppies and created our own poppy to take home. We celebrated the soldiers and animals in our liturgy and observed the two minute silence at 11 o'clock.

We have had a colourful and explosive week in Nursery talking about the fireworks we’ve seen and recreating them. We flicked paint onto large paper to create a firework filled night sky. We Made a fantastic rocket in the garden which blasted off into the sky and explored lots of firework themed tuff trays.

We have had a spooky scary week celebrating Halloween in Nursery. We enjoyed dressing, dancing & playing games in the big hall. We played in the spooky witches’ house & made lots of magical potions. We loved making monster biscuits to enjoy when watched ‘Room on the Broom

Nursery have loved investigating the season of Autumn. We created our own sticky collage of autumn objects and painted large logs with autumn-coloured paints. We enjoyed making our very own Spiky hedgehogs using clay and sticks.

Nursery have been learning about ourselves this week. We painted, chalked, and drew images of ourselves. We talked about how our body reacts to big feelings e.g. happy and sad. We enjoyed making silly faces with fruit and vegetables.

Nursery have been ‘Happy and you know it’ this week exploring all things ‘Nursery Rhymes’. We have been ‘Five little monkeys jumping on the bed’-Don’t tell Mrs Bullerwell! We have loved playing musical instruments and singing along to different rhymes and have played with numerous nursery rhyme tuff trays.

Nursery have enjoyed exploring their senses in the new ‘Sensory Room’. We loved playing in the ball pool, chilling out in the den surrounded by twinkling lights. We have also been learning how to balance on various beams and objects. We have also shared lots of magical stories in our amazing new Early Years Library.

We have had great fun in our first week of Nursery. We have explored the Rainbow Garden and had lots of fun playing with the new toys and making new friends.
