Nursery Learn About Pets!

This week, as we wrapped up our topic on Pets, we had a very special visit from two lovely dogs – Dotty and Dave!  The children were absolutely thrilled to meet them, and their excitement was contagious! It was a wonderful opportunity to learn more about how we care for and treat our furry friends.

Inspired by our core story, “Lulu Gets a Cat”, we also welcomed a new friend into our home corner: an adorable (stuffed!) cat named Makeeda. The children immediately took her under their wing, enjoying looking after her by feeding her, playing with her and making her feel right at home.

In Phonics, we’ve started tuning into the sounds all around us and introduced our very first letter sound – ‘m’! The children have enjoyed spotting objects that begin with this sound and practising making the sound together.

At our Art table, we explored two different creative activities: making colourful window rangoli patterns and creating our very own cats through junk modelling! Using a variety of materials, including cardboard boxes, pompoms and pipe cleaners for tails, the children enjoyed cutting, sticking, gluing and bringing their imaginative creations to life. It was fantastic to see their creativity shine!

It’s been another week full of creativity, exploration and happy moments in Nursery!
