Gardening area - digging up the carrots!

Last year the Nursery children planted carrot seeds. The children were responsibile for looking after them and they have now grown in to carrots. Last week the children learned about harvest and the school visited the church to celebrate harvest festival. This week some of the foundation stage children decided that it was time to harvest the carrots and a group of them dug them up. This is what happened.

Anyone fancy a picnic?

The children in this short film have independently taken some resources from the home corner and made their own picnic/tea party in the blue room. They are using their own experiences and ideas to explore different family roles and extend their understanding of going on a picnic.
