Our Lent Promise

To celebrate Lent. We made a class Lent promise. Our promise was: "To show our love to everyone". We discussed ways in which we can show our love and them drew them on our own love heart. 

Lent: Growing

In Nursery we have been learning about Lent. We spoke about how we grow and what we do to show love. To support this today we have planted our own cress and discussed the ways in which we can take care of our plant. We talked about what we need to grow as humans and what plants need to grow. In literacy we have also been reading, “The Enormous Turnip” which linked brilliantly to this activity!

This week we have been learning about length. We used the playdough to make long and short caterpillars, we then lined the caterpillars up to compare the length. As a class we identified the longest and shortest caterpillar. We had lots of fun!!

Looking After Our Teeth

We had a special visitor from the Oral Health Improvement Team who talked to us about how we can look after our teeth and why it is important. We talked about foods that are good and bad for our teeth and we learnt how to clean our teeth properly. To help look after our teeth, we brush our teeth after lunch every day in school.

We have lots of fun brushing our teeth every day! Here are some pictures of us making our teeth squeaky clean:
