The Queen of Hearts.

This week we have been learning the nursery rhyme - The Queen of Hearts.


The Queen of Hearts, she made some tarts,
all on a summers day.
The Knave of Hearts, he stole those tarts
and took them right away.


First we made real jam tarts. Then we opened a cake shop where the children produced their own cakes, tarts and biscuits using play dough, and sold them to their friends.







Nursery open day

On Thursday 11th February we invited parents to join their children at nursery. It gave them the opportunity to see first hand our nursery routines and the high levels of independence we expect from the children.
Parents enjoyed playing with their children in the setting and found the experience very worthwhile.

We plan to run another open day in the summer term. Dates will be confirmed nearer the time.
