This week, Pre- School have been exploring the new equipment in the garden; balancing, climbing and swinging across the monkey bars all help to build our strength which in turn leads to a strong pencil grip. We have enjoyed preparing fruit by peeling, cutting and investigating different fruit combinations to make our own smoothies. Following on from sharing stories about life cycles, we have been very interested in the new arrivals to Pre- School. Five very hungry caterpillars have been welcomed in, and everyone has been very interested to observe them. We have had some super questions asked, “why are they spiky?” and “why are they different colours?” along with some amazing answers “to protect them from predators!”

Next week we will be sharing the story of The Tiny Seed.
