Flying Start @ Camborne Celebrate National Poetry Week!

The pre-school and toddler departments at Flying Start @ Camborne celebrated National Poetry Work, by exploring poetry and lots of related activities this week!

The pre-schoolers made some lovely pictures with poems about their families, and decorated them with pom poms and shiny papers!

Look how wonderful their poem pictures look!

Meanwhile, the toddlers focused on their hand prints, and printed them alongside a lovely poem!

They then took them home for their parents and carers to have as lovely keepsakes!

What lovely ways to explore poetry, well done Flying Start @ Camborne!

Flying Start @ Camborne Celebrate World Mental Health Day With Local Care Home!

Flying Start @ Camborne not only celebrated World Mental Health Day with the children, but also with their parents and families, and with the local residential home!

At the residential home, the children asked the elderly residents what makes them happy and sad… some of them said that the children’s weekly visit makes them happy, which was lovely for them to hear! They made happy face pictures with the children too!

Meanwhile back at nursery,the staff invited parents and families in for some yoga, and dancing to The Happy Song, which they all enjoyed!

All of this week, all of the children have been learning about World Mental Day too… The pre-schoolers have been talking about what makes them happy and sad and drawing pictures of their happy and sad faces.

The toddlers did the same, and used emotion puppets and emotion pebbles to aid their emotion discussions too!

And they finished with all of this brilliant work, by making a fantastic World Mental Health Day display on the wall with all of their work!

Flying Start @ Camborne Pre-Schoolers Make Homemade Pizzas!

The pre-school children at Flying Start @ Camborne have been practising their chef skills in cooking club, and were very excited to make homemade pizzas!

First, they used their knife skills to chop up all of the different vegetables, then they spread the tomato puree on the base, chose their colourful toppings from all the different vegetables, and then added a large sprinkle of cheese!

The pizzas looked brilliant and colourful, and once the nursery staff had helped take them away to cook them and cool them, the children got to tuck in… yum!
