June Newsletter

Ducklings The Ducklings children have loved the outdoors and exploring our giant sandpit, they loved it so much that the Ducklings team made their very own beach indoors! The children used spades, buckets, large shells, rakes and pebbles to investigate the sand and how to transport and change it by adding to water. Many of our children really enjoy emptying and filling containers which is a natural part of a child’s development and is an aspect of schematic play. We will be continuing to support this play over the next few weeks by providing different resources for the children to empty and fill. Another interest which has recently emerged is climbing into the furniture in our home corner, a favourite is the sink!!! Children at this age like to feel a sense of enclosure and to hide ‘inside things’, to support this will be introducing cardboard box play, den making and tunnel play. We would like to say a big congratulation to Ethan Gibbons and Nate Tingey who have both recently become big brothers to Emma and Leo, both boys are fabulous big brothers!
