Nursery
This week we’ve been exploring our toy bugs! We used the magnifying glasses, looking through and noticing how they make everything seem bigger.
We have also been exploring our technology, recognising the different objects and using them correctly - holding the phones up to our ear and saying 'hiya'!
We've also really enjoyed the bubble lamp, having a calm moment watching the bubbles float to the surface. We've also really enjoyed being outdoors, doing lots of drawing with chalk!
Kindergarten
This week in Kindergarten we have enjoyed spending lots of time in the garden with different resources and activities. We laid out an obstacle course for us to practice our balancing skills, as our gross motor skills develop further. We stretched our arms out to our sides to help us balance too!
We have been loving our easel as well, using lots of different paint colours and mixing them together to make different shades. We have been experimenting with different resources too, we used some plastic cups to make circles on the paper.
We had an outdoor car wash were the cars got all dirty then flew down the ramp into the soapy water to get squeaky clean! We have had lots of of bubble parties, where we have enjoyed dancing to superman and Macarena whilst pop pop popping the bubbles! This week has been so much fun, well done Kindergarten.
From next week, our Red Bus blog posts are moving from weekly to monthly. This means the next update for Downend will be w/c 14th July 2025.
