August Newsletter Cygnets Room News

The Cygnets have had another fantastic month learning about lots of exciting things. To begin with, we celebrated Eid-al-Adha and the Cygnets got very busy in the creative area as they made some amazing artwork creating moons and stars. We also tried some yummy traditional foods and dressed up in the role play area in traditional clothing. July’s Artist of the Month has been Sandro Botticelli. The children went on a hunt around the big garden looking for beautiful leaves and flowers, which we then used to recreate some of Sandro's work. The children decorated a picture of themselves with the flower and leaves they found and everyone had so much fun creating these! The Cygnets loved supporting the England Women’s team in the Euros. They came to nursery in their favourite football kits to celebrate Football Day and we took part in lots of fun-filled activities. We designed our own football shirts, explored the England flag made from rice and even enjoyed playing a little football match in the garden. The children loved trying to score some goals. We have also had so much fun celebrating Beach Week. The fun started with an amazing water slide, where the Cygnets took it in turns to slip down. Everyone had so much fun! The children also really enjoyed jumping up and down in a tuff tray filled with water. We have also loved exploring ice, from mark-making with coloured ice to exploring large ice blocks with natural naturals frozen inside. For lunch, the Cygnets children really enjoyed their delicious homemade fish and chips, followed by a special treat of ice cream!
