Cygnets Room News

Throughout October, we celebrated Rosh Hashanah, Halloween and Mental Health Day. The Cygnets enjoyed making their apple and honey pictures for Rosh Hashanah by using different creative skills like glueing and sticking, painting and stamping. They also had different activities set up related to Halloween. The Cygnets enjoyed making pumpkin soup with different measuring tools; they made Halloween pictures such as ghosts, potions and pumpkins with a variety of materials, including different shades of orange tissue paper, pipe cleaners, paints, etc... We also had our Halloween disco where the children went trick or treating in the big garden, explored lots of spooky activities and also enjoyed their mummy sausages and biscuits as a treat to finish off the disco. To support Mental Health Day, we held a spa day in Cygnets Room. The children came with their dressing gowns and slippers and enjoyed relaxing with their feet in a foot spa. The Cygnets also enjoyed having some massages and cucumber eye masks, as well as having their nails painted. The Cygnets also did some yoga to help them with their deep breathing, which helped them to relax and stay calm. We are looking forward to celebrating Diwali and have lots of fun activities planned. We will be making Diya lamps and will be learning about henna patterns as well as creating Rangoli. We are also looking forward to taking the children on more trips throughout November. We will be going on the bus to the library, taking fun autumn walks in the park and walking to the local shops.
