Box Zoos, sandcastles, badgers and nocturnal animals, and car ramps. Just some of the fun we had today as we created in our play.

Lots of collaboration, problem solving, and fun in evidence at the blocks. We think it is the best resource in the nursery. In the morning, we have a city for dinosaurs. In the afternoon, a cruise ship appears. #BlocksRock @falkirkfroebel.bsky.social

I love how theses ‘Story Stones’ have ignited such interest in storytelling with many children this week.
Great to see storytelling and story acting happening throughout the nursery #StoryoftheMoment 🦈📕💗⬇️

Woodlands ELC Centre & Hub @woodlandselcc.bsky.social · 9d

Through lots of natural reading opportunities the children have become familiar with the plot of our story of the moment “Shark in the Park”. We areable to sort the story into the correct sequence using our knowledge and understanding of story as well as visuals and props to support our play.

*NURSERY* On Forest Friday last week our wee ones were on the hunt for a chestnut tree to see if we could find more conkers. We also put up our fantastic posters encouraging people to put their litter in the bin just like ‘Tiny Crab’ from our Stupendous Story. #MyWorldOutdoors #KEEPWHITECROSSTIDY

If anyone has any unwanted kitchen utensils they would be willing to donate to nursery for our wee ones to be creative with outdoors we would be extremely grateful. These can be handed directly into nursery or the main school office. Many thanks! 🤩
