22 Street Lane Nursery - July 2026 Newsletter

June Newsletter NEWS

National Children’s Gardening Week: W/C Monday 1st June To celebrate National Children’s Gardening Week, the children will enjoy taking part in a variety of gardening activities and learning all about the importance of plants in our ecosystem. They will help to plant more flowers and herbs in our Nursery Allotment, care for the plants as they grow, and explore how plants support wildlife and the environment. The children will also enjoy trips to Roundhay Park, where they will have opportunities to observe nature, explore the outdoors, and talk about the different plants, trees, and insects they discover.

Healthy Eating Week and Great Big Green Week: W/C Monday 8th June We will be supporting ‘Healthy Eating Week’ from 8th-12th June, where we will be teaching the children about what foods keep us healthy and what foods we should not eat too much of. Each of the rooms will be making their own healthy snacks and will have a chance to visit the nursery allotment to see where our food comes from! The Great Big Green Week is during the same week and is the UK’s biggest celebration of community action to tackle climate change and protect nature. The children will therefore be learning all about how we can protect our planet, going on lots of walks in the local community, collecting litter and learning about saving our oceans. The Cygnets and Swans will also be doing some junk modelling using recycled materials, focusing on the importance of recycling and reusing items.
