Despite the little raindrops we went to Mamhead woods for a walk one said "it was great" and wanted to go back again!

Today we made stripey ice lollies and sat in the sun to eat them!

Leavers' Ceremony

The leaver's ceremony is one of those markers in life!

Our leavers' are now too big to return to preschool...and need a bigger school to go to so that they can learn even harder things

The last day of term, is always actioned filled....a paper fight; butterfly release; dancing to our favourite songs...the children were so bushed, that they spontaneously got blankets and lay on the floor in front of the whiteboard for a last look at their favourite whiteboard rhymes & songs after lunch!

We went outside for some bubbles before our mums and dads arrived to watch the ceremony.  Michele ALWAYS forgets how to read upside down making mistake after mistake which lightens the mood as the children take turns to receive their presentation certificates/folders/present and shake hands!

Lots of giggles!

Goodness Me!  We'll miss this bunch (God Bless!)



THANK YOU

The staff and I would like to thank you all for the very kind words and presents that we received - we all felt very valued - so thank you so very much!

Thank you Jenny for giving permission for the use of these photos - I still can't read your plaque out loud!

...and then there was a snowstorm!

Just pictures - last day antics!

What a mess!  What FUN!

Leaver's Party 2014

On Monday this week we held our leavers party.  The children enjoyed LOTS of fun and games; music and laughs before having their party food OUTSIDE!  They really enjoyed this treat.

Later a magician came to entertain the children.  OZZY-D, THAT'S ME!  He was so bad that the children thought him really good. He did some tricks; had some puppets & gave the childlren all a very special balloon each!


 We had a lot of laughs at the comments we overheard.....

"This is the best party I've ever been too" one little boy uttered in his excitement!

They enjoyed choosing balloons animals (including T-Rex's) to take home.  A great time was had by all.

Butterfly Release!

Over the past 4 weeks we've watched our butterfly eggs hatch, build cocoons around themselves and then hatch in beautiful butterflies.  Our butterflies were painted ladies.

We caught the children watching in fascination as the butterflies fluttered around their house.  We fed them on sugar syrup and pieces of fruit.  We thought that they liked pear and plum best of all.

We added some singing nettles and thistles to the house last week...and now we have eggs!

On the last day of term, we released our butterflies, leaving a bowl of fruit out for them, just in case they get hungry.

I wonder if our eggs will hatch?

Puppies - July 2014

Everyone said Ooooo! when they caught sight of our visitors one morning - two little collie pups called Jazz and Skye.

We all delighted in playng with our little bundles of fluff!

Everyone went into the carpark to wave goodbye when it was time for the pups to leave.

Maybe, Jazz and Skye will be back again next term?


Great Fun!
