This week in Nursery we welcomed a selection of animals. Some very brave Nursery children as you can see! A great experience for our youngest children in the school. #aimhigh @BrackensdaleS

After listening to the story The Giving Tree, our Nursery children set out to find a giving tree of their own! This one gave us some much needed shade and we rekindled a rather nostalgic pastime of making a bark rubbing! #bekind @BrackensdaleS

Fact: the intrinsic muscles within the hand play a crucial part in our ability to grip and pinch. Fact: strength equals endurance. Fact: filling syringes and squirting water is a great way to spend a Thursday morning! #aimhigh @BrackensdaleS

A crash course in bricklaying this week in Nursery. The children mixed their own mortar using water, sand and shaving foam. All that mixing is great for shoulder strength and spreading on mortar gets us working across the midline. Every Child a Mover! #aimhigh @BrackensdaleS

Going back to Easter traditions with a great Easter Bonnet Parade by the Nursery children. The bonnets were made at our parent craft session earlier in the week where our wonderful dads got busy with their designs! #bekind @BrackensdaleS

A penguin went missing in FS2 this week! We decided to create posters to help us find him. We hung them around school and asked the teachers if anyone had seen him. @OliverJeffers #LostAndFound @BrackensdaleS #aimhigh
