The Pre-School children were set a task to collect recycled items from home to build their own space rockets at nursery! The children chose different items and used glue, string and tape to stick them together to create their rocket! This created lots of conversations about the importance of recycling. ♻️🚀🥰

To celebrate and raise awareness of World Down Syndrome day we all wore yellow, odd socks and had crazy hair! We also measured our Sunflowers we planted at the start of the month! 💛🌼🧦

The children loved making their own smoothies in Preschool recently and it provided so many learning opportunities! They peeled and chopped their own fruits, used the numbers on the blender, counting down whilst learning how to operate it and then they enjoyed drinking them all up! They had lots of conversations about the different fruits, the many favourites they could create and how healthy all the ingredients are! 🍓🍌🍍😋

Why do we have Aims?
If you don't know what you want to achieve, then how will you achieve it!?
At Sylvan House our aims are very clear and imbedded in our daily practice, policies and procedures. Our aims are extremely important to us and help us to provide the best childcare and education we can for all of our children and their families.

The children in the Butterflies class have been focusing their activities around the song Baa Baa Black Sheep, a current favourite nursery rhyme! They have been 'sheering' the sheeps wool in the foam outside. They enjoyed getting messy and learning lots of new words as they explored the activity and strengthened their physical development! 🐑

We had so much fun learning all about healthy eating and the importance of keeping hydrated last week as part of Nutrition and Hydration Week! Here's a little insight into some of the fun things we got up to, including looking at different vegetables in the playdough, learning lots of new vegetable names such as aubergine and spring onion. This sparked lots of conversations about how the vegetables help us grow big and strong when we eat them. The children have also been using potatoes to make marks and potato prints, talking about the different colours and also the shapes that were cut into the potatoes. Our older children were very lucky to receive a visit from Jasmine’s Mum, Sonal, who is a dietitian. She spoke to the children about healthy foods and different types of foods such as, carbohydrates and protein. Conversations included talking about staying hydrated, drinking lots of fluids and also why calcium from milk and yogurt are important. Thank you for visiting us Sonal! 🥔🍆🧅🍓🍎 🍌🍊💦

The preschool class has chosen a new topic - Space! The children are enjoying learning all about the planets, the sun, moon and stars.
They created a sensory water experience which looked like the Galaxy in outer space where they enjoyed catching the glowing stars and the shiny meteorites! They explored floating and sinking as well as comparing different measurements. 💫🌠🪐

The Butterflies children have been busy making rainbow playdough! This has come from them enjoying singing the 'I Can Sing A Rainbow song! The children have been practising their fine motor skills rolling, squeezing and pulling the playdough whilst practising naming the colours they see! 🌈🥰

We have enhanced our water area in preschool with a new indoor water tray! The children used measuring cups and cylinders to measure, pour and transfer water. They looked closely at the numbers on the measuring cups and talked about units, introducing new language. The children became fascinated with the sea creatures, having conversations about their own experiences when identifying each one! 🥰💦🐋🐠🐬🦈🦀

We love to bring the children's learning outdoors and we are very lucky to have two lovely outdoor areas! Our older children have been focusing on developing their gross motor skills and physical development through playing football, testing their hula hoops skills, playing with the bats and balls and mark making whilst doing large scale drawings with the dinosaurs as part of their current topic! ⚽🦕🦖
