Flying Start @ Camborne were delighted to finally have some sunshine this week, and they have been making the most of playing & exploring outside in their big garden.

Before going out in the garden, the children made sure they put their suncream on, and rubbed it in really well – with help & supervision from the staff. They chatted about why it’s so important to wear suncream, and to bring a sunhat to nursery too!

In the garden, they have had a great time playing on the bikes and cars, on the seesaw, and in the house…

… balancing and climbing…

… watering the plants and helping sweep away the leaves…

 

Looks like great outdoor fun was had by all!
