Bellisimo! Pizza Party

Ms Hill, our new Support Worker, lived in Italy for many years.  She has been sharing her culinary skills with us.  We made pizza dough and then added some of our favourite toppings to make delicious pizzas.

Harvesting Potatoes

We have been busy harvesting the potatoes we planted last session.  It was lots of fun scrubbing them and using them to create different snacks in nursery.  We have been learning about hygiene routines when preparing food.  Using peelers and knives has also given us the opportunity to use real utensils and we have learned about how to use them safely.

We enjoyed mashed potatoes with different toppings.  We also made delicious soup using some of the other vegetables we have grown.

The children have had lots of fun and have learned so much that we will be putting our skills to good use and developing or interests in cooking throughout Autumn.  Lots of family members have offered to help out and we look forward to making scones, cakes and pizzas.  Yum yum!

Fun at the Gym!

A coach from Strathgryffe Tennis Club delivered tennis lessons during the month of September. The children had fun developing their co-ordination and teamwork skills through fun games and activities.

Jess’s mum is a Basketball coach and we had a ball learning to control our bodies and use different equipment to improve our hand-eye co-ordination!

We Are Artists

Hope’s mummy is an artist and she has kindly given of her time to work with small groups of children.  They have loved learning how to use the pottery wheel and are looking forward to making Christmas decorations.
