Christmas Carol Celebration

Last week in nursery we held our Christmas Carol Celebration. We had been really working hard to remember all the carols which we sang to our family and friends. We were able to dress up as angels and re-create the nativity scene learning all about the birth of baby Jesus. Afterwards our family and friends were invited back into nursery for a hot drink and a mince pie, a good time was had by all.

Colour and Light

In nursery this half-term we have been learning about colour and light. We have really enjoyed finding out about the differences between night and day and have had some great fun making dens and playing inside them with our torches.

Fairlop Heritage Day

Fairlop Heritage Day was a day to remember for the whole school! Nursery really enjoyed taking part in the parade dressed in red and white colours representing England. Nursery children followed on after the reception classes and did a fantasti job waving the flags that we had made in nursery earlier that week!

Visit from a paramedic

The Nursery had a visit from Mr Low - a paramedic from East of England Ambulance Service. He talked to the children about his job and answered any questions they had. He showed the children how to put on a sling and listen to a person breathing using a stethoscope.

Welcome back to Nursery!

A warm welcome all new children and parents to Fairlop Nursery and of course, a warm welcome back to children who were with us last year.

The Nursery Team has changed since last year and now consists of Mrs Low (formerly Miss Sales) - Nursery Teacher/Green group Key worker, Mrs Stichbury - Blue group Key Worker, Mrs Gilbert/Mrs Nicholson - Red group key workers, Mrs Barker - Teaching Assistant. Please feel free to speak to any member of the team if you have any questions or concerns.

The children in the Nursery have made a great start to the year. They are beginning to make friends and are having fun exploring the Nursery environment to find out what they can do.

Keep visiting this blog to see pictures and videos of the children working. This week you will see the Nursery children singing the song Boom Chika Boom. Enjoy!

Each week the Nursery has focus activities that they do with the children. Last week the children completed an obstacle course in the hall. The following day the children were given the opportunity to master the course on their own. The video shows some of the morning children developing their balancing skills and using the physical equipment outside.

Water Play at Nursery

Simron and Sibel are having great fun filling up the bottles. Simron also discovers what happens when you blow onto the water and Sibel has a go to.

Sade and Natasha are playing at the water tray. They are filling up bottles and using the water to turn the water wheel. Sade then finds out what happens if you put a spoon over the neck of the bottle.
