What’s Been Happening At Our Nursery
🍂 Autumn vibes in full swing with our creative Tweenies! Today we explored the magic of seasonal textures using halved apples and vibrant paints to stamp out beautiful patterns. From golden leaves to cozy colours, their little masterpieces captured the spirit of fall perfectly! 🎨🍎

Today was a masterpiece of make-believe!
We painted like artists, picnicked like explorers, turned a cardboard box into an adventure, and cooked up giggles in the home corner café.
Imagination was the real MVP 💫

🧼💧 Today our preschoolers rolled up their sleeves and got scrubbing! In our “Wash the Germs Off” activity, we learned all about hygiene through playful, hands-on fun. With bubbly soap, giggles, and lots of splashing, our little ones practiced keeping those pesky germs away—one sudsy swirl at a time! 🖐️✨

🎨✨ Little hands, big discoveries! Our preschoolers explored colours, shapes, and textures through a fun fine motor activity that sparked creativity and curiosity. From squishy pom-poms to bumpy buttons and smooth paper cutouts, every tiny touch helped build coordination and confidence. We love watching their imaginations come to life one pinch, press, and pattern at a time! 💛

Today in our Tweenies room, creativity flowed freely as little hands explored the magic of free hand painting! Not only did our budding artists express themselves through colour and texture, but they also strengthened their fine motor skills and built confidence in communication and language. We love watching their imaginations come to life! 💬🖌️
