During the month of August, the children have been busy in the nature garden looking at the story The Tiny Seed. The children have then planted their own seeds in the garden and have been watching their sunflowers and tomatoes grow.

The children have had a fantastic month exploring a variety of educational learning opportunities based on their individual interests. The children have been enjoying the varied weather and exploring the outdoor environments through a range of activities which has led to some amazing outdoor learning opportunities. There have been lots of spider and bug hunts around the garden, which has then led to spider sensory trays and looking at the shapes in the environment around them.

This month the children have had a fantastic time with their learning opportunities provided through their current interests. Lots of time has been spent outside enjoying the varied weather from basking in the sun to splashing in the puddles.

The children have enjoyed a fun-packed month this month enjoying a range of activities through their own interest and curiosity. During the month of May, we have celebrated the King’s Coronation, World Environment Day, Ocean’s Day, Make Music Day, and plenty of Out and About trips to our wider communities.

My Smile is an accreditation awarded to early years settings that implement the four steps of the award. These create a tooth friendly environment for young children, helping to protect their oral health.

Another fantastic month here at Blackberries where the children took part in a range of educational learning opportunities both inside and outside the setting. We have incorporated special days celebrated throughout April which have included Easter, World Earth Day, and Ramadan.
