A week of exciting Easter activities enabled the children to practice their fine and gross motor skills. Making nests, rolling play dough, hiding eggs and using scissors helps the growth and strengthening of children’s bones, muscles and ability to move and touch their surroundings. Some children loved the new stepping stones at the allotments and others used magnifying glasses to look for dinosaur fossils. On Wednesday we launched the new ‘Rising 5’s’ group. For the summer term we will focus on a few key areas to help the children make the transition to ‘Big School’ as smoothly as possible. The activities offered will be a little more challenging, but the emphasis will always be on having fun!
