Spring is on its way in the nursery garden! The children have been searching for signs of new life while exploring outside this morning, and are learning the names of some flowers they have spotted.

Happy New Year to our families celebrating the year of the Ox.

It looks like Leith will be getting some new neighbours. Wonder if any fairies will be moving in near you.

Some new ideas for you to try using different materials for mark making. Don’t forget to put any photos of your child painting onto their learning journal.
