Nursery Simpson’s Lane

We had a great day making our cardboard city today. The children enjoyed transforming the boxes into various buildings, shops and vehicles. @SimpsonsLane

Nursery sports day was amazing! We are so proud of the children and their efforts. Great sportsmanship from everyone. Thank you to all the grown ups for coming to support the children 🏅 @SimpsonsLane

We had the best time today! Undoubtedly our favourite day of the year…#InternationalMudDay Giving a new meaning to ‘get out in nature’ everyone had a smile on their face especially after finishing with a yummy s’more 😁 @SimpsonsLane

Seaside day has been a big hit at school even though the sunshine didn’t come out 💛 everyone had an amazing time on the donkeys!! @SimpsonsLane

We are learning our butterflies belong in a cycle of laying eggs that hatch into caterpillars 🐛 who make a cocoon to transform into butterflies then they lay eggs that hatch into new caterpillars 🐛 We set them free flapping their wings to go and lay more eggs. 🦋 @SimpsonsLane

Our Talk for Writing story ‘The Very Hungry Caterpillar’. Something very special came in the post yesterday! The children are very excited to watch them transform. @SimpsonsLane

We are enjoying using the parachute and learning how to balance the ball on top of it. @SimpsonsLane

We love drawing each other and writing our names ✍️ @SimpsonsLane

Practising our turn taking skills started as a challenge. By the end of the game we were experts.@SimpsonsLane

This week we are revisiting the numicon, recognising, counting and recording. @SimpsonsLane

We are so lucky one of our amazing parents have brought us some frogspawn and tadpoles to observe at school. We have done some research to find out what they will turn into! How exciting! 🐸 @SimpsonsLane

Using Gross Motor skills to draw around each other and practice writing our names @SimpsonsLane

Having a check in with our feelings on the colour monster this morning! Most of our friends are feeling happy today 💛 @SimpsonsLane

Teamwork makes the dream work! Scrubbing our numicon so they are not dirty anymore. We love to help and we love to talk about numbers 👍🏻 @SimpsonsLane

We have had some amazing entry’s for the Easter egg competition already. Not sure how Mr Colley will choose the winners. Well done Nursery! @SimpsonsLane

Learning all about germs 🦠 The babies are dirty can you help to get them clean? It’s difficult when the germs are sticking to them. “Have no fear soap will help!” @SimpsonsLane

Hot cross buns have been a firm yes from nearly all of the children as we carry on our exploration of all this Easter today! @SimpsonsLane

We had some special visitors to tell us the Easter story from St Botolph’s Church. The children were very interested in learning about what happened and why we celebrate Easter! @SimpsonsLane

It’s amazing to have all the grown-ups in the classroom to spend time with us. No doubt they are always our favourite days. Thank you everyone for coming!!! Happy Easter 🐣 @SimpsonsLane

@SimpsonsLane We did get there in the end!! Yummy!!

Making instructions is hard work!! How do we make a sandwich? "Put the butter on the bread Miss Gardom". I wonder if we can help Jasper by creating some simple instructions so we can help him understand how to look after his beanstalk... @SimpsonsLane
