St Piran’s | The Millstone | Easter Term
NURSERY TAKEOVER!
An absolute highlight for all of our Nursery children has been having the run of the school during the first half of term, and they certainly made the most of it! We celebrated the new year in January, Chinese New Year and Shrove Tuesday in February, Science Week and Mother’s Day in March, and of course, the hotly contested Millstone Race was run by the Nursery children to celebrate St Piran’s Day! The beginning of term saw our Nursery Caterpillars relocated to their newly refurbished home in White Lodge, where they quickly settled in to life at St Piran’s. The class stood confidently in front of their peers and other mummies to say ‘Happy Mother’s Day’ at our virtual event to tell their Mummy why they are so special to them.
A rather popular new addition to the weekly routine has been enjoying hot chocolate and a special snack in the woodland each week! It is a wonderful space which provided an opportunity for the Nursery children to make their own lunches, cook their own pasta and vegetables and learn about fire safety and how to build a fire this term. They progressed to making a stir-fry and melting chocolate to make delicious Easter nests. No wonder there were such mouth-watering food smells coming from the school grounds!
