Leaf bashing, by Mrs Brammer

Date: 16th Oct 2025 @ 5:08pm

‘Leaf bashing’

‘Hapa Zome’ is a Japanese term which means leaf dye. Hapa Zome or ‘leaf bashing’ involves putting a piece of material on top of leaves and flowers then hitting it with hammers or mallets. The colour from the leaves and flowers transfers onto the material. In nursery, we then used the material to make flags.

Hobby Horses

The children made hobby horses out of odd socks, sawdust, string and big sticks. They had a great time riding their horses round the yard, then taking them back to the stable!

Colour Mixing

This week in nursery, we have been experimenting with colour mixing to see what new colours we can make. We have tried lots of different ways of mixing colours - paints, tissue paper, dyed water, dyed ice cubes and powder paints with big brooms outside.

Potatoes, by Mrs Brammer

Date: 14th Jul 2025 @ 10:57am

Back in March, the nursery children 'chitted' some potatoes, then planted them. Since then, they have been watering them and watching them grow.

In July, the children dug up the potatoes. Then they tried them as chips with cheese and tomato ketchup. The chips were very popular!

Foundation Stage 1's Summer Rivelin Valley Walk 2025

We were lucky with the weather for our Rivelin Valley walk - it was sunny but not too hot. The children spotted some signs of Summer - trees in full leaf, a few butterflies and some birds - including a heron and some magpies.

We went a little further this time and followed a slightly different route. The children did really well with the slightly longer walk. They were also able to cross the river using the stepping stones. We then had a little picnic snack and a drink before heading back to school, while we had our picnic, a mallard duck came to say, "Hello!"

In Y4 today, the children were investigating and evaluating breads. After discussing bread products from around the world and bread production, they sampled 5 different types of bread and made comments on the appearance, aroma, texture and taste. They all showed their core value of curiosity, well done Y4!

FS1 Spring Walk to Rivelin Valley

The nursery children went on a walk in Rivelin Valley to look for signs of Spring. Using lanyards with photos on to help them, they spotted daffodils, leaf buds, catkins and other signs of Spring.

They walked to the duck pond and fed the ducks. While there, the children used their lanyards to identify the different types of duck they saw. They found mallard ducks, moorhens, mandarin ducks and a goose.

Shrove Tuesday and World Book Day 2025, by Mrs Brammer

Shrove Tuesday and World Book Day 2025

We had a busy week in nursery last week!

We were learning about Shrove Tuesday and Lent, as part of this learning, the children tried pancakes with fruit.

We started learning about Ramadan and discussed some of the similarities and differences between Ramadan and Lent. We will continue learning about Ramadan and Eid over the next few weeks.

World Book Day was an exciting day in nursery! The children looked fantastic in their costumes and pyjamas. We went to the whole school assembly for the first time, so we could see all the big children and staff in their costumes. Then, we had a staff swap and the reception teachers read some stories in nursery.

Whatever Next, by Mrs Brammer

Date: 10th Mar 2025 @ 1:21pm

Whatever Next

In Spring 1, our topic in nursery was bears. As part of this topic, we read a variety of bear books, including We're Going on a Bear Hunt and Whatever Next. In the story Whatever Next, Baby Bear goes to the moon in a carboard box rocket and has a picnic with an owl on the moon. As part of the picnic, they have jam sandwiches, so we decided to make jam sandwiches in nursery. This was an excellent opportunity for the children to practise their fine motor skills using a butter knife to spread the butter and jam.

FS1 Teddy Bear Reading Celebration, by Mrs Brammer

Date: 10th Feb 2025 @ 9:58am

Teddy Bear Reading Celebration

In nursery this half-term, we have been reading a variety of bear stories, including Goldilocks and the Three Bears, We’re Going on a Bear Hunt and Whatever Next.

As part of our topic on bears, the children were encouraged to bring a teddy bear to nursery and parents and carers were invited into school for a Teddy Bear Reading Celebration. The children chose a book and found a comfy place to sit with a grown-up and a teddy, then listened to stories being read.

The turn out for this event was excellent. We are really grateful to all the parents and carers who attended. The children really enjoyed it.

Some children loved the porridge, others did not, but they all tried it with a little jam, honey or sugar.

Windy Day - 24th January 2025, by Mrs Brammer

Date: 27th Jan 2025 @ 11:07am

In nursery, we are not put off by bad weather! We believe it is important for the children's learning about weather and temperatures for them to experience them first hand. Not all the children enjoy the cold, rain and snow however, so going outside is optional.

For storm Éowyn, the children (who wanted to) decorated some pieces of material using fabric pens. Then, Miss Gartside helped them turn them into kites to fly on the EYFS yard. They had a great time. FS1 Windyday 25.png

We want to thank all the parents and carers who attended our Christmas workshops, the turnout was fantastic. The children did really well learning and performing the songs and poems. We are so proud of them all. The Christmas crafts they created were also brilliant!
