Flying Start @ Camborne Celebrate Mother’s Day!
What better way to treat your Mother than with a well earned Thankyou and Afternoon Tea full of Treats?!
The Mum’s got a deserved rest for the afternoon with freshly brewed tea, dainty sandwiches, tea cakes and pink biscuits!
They then got to join in with some crafts, and all received some beautiful flowers!
What a lovely way to thank the Mum’s who do so much for us all!
Flying Start @ Camborne Celebrate Their Love Of Books…
The children and staff got all dressed up as their favourite characters!
They spent the day role playing, reading stories and enjoying story themed activities!
Lots of dramatic play and fantasy play was greatly enhanced by their beautiful costumes!
Snack time with Tigger and Eeyore (Staff), several Princess’s and Superheroes was fab!
All children received their World Book Day Token so that they can purchase a book of their choice to enjoy at home also.
Flying Start @ Camborne Build Their Technology Skills…
Using their Kiddizoom camera to capture photographs, they are aiming and shooting lots!
They then check the photo’s they have taken using the screen on the back, and can even flip the camera around for a much loved selfie shot!
Flying Start @ Camborne Match Letters and Sounds…
The preschool children do daily letters and sounds activities to develop their speech, listening skills and phonic awareness but now have been creating their own fun with letters…
Using computer keyboards, signs around the room, letters in books and also ICT toys (like in the picture above!) the older children have been finding their special letters!
Recognising the letters in their first names and now starting to notice some from their friends names too!
Now the children are linking the letter they see to its sound, with this keyboard toy they press the button and hear the sound to repeat it.
Keep up lots of phonic work pre-schoolers!
Flying Start @ Camborne’s Chinese New Year Dragon Dances!
The children made a fantastic Dragon for Chinese New Year and celebrated this festival together, and then Cynthia kindly sewed it all together to create…
This WONDERFUL Dragon!
The best bit about the dragon is every time the door is opened the wind helps the Dragon to dance!
Flying Start @ Camborne Get Crafty With Their Parents!
A morning of arts and craft on a large scale helped everyone get very creative last week…
Junk modelling of all shapes and sizes making robots!
And some brilliant team work…
To really put on the finishing touches!
Thankyou to all who came!
Flying Start @ Camborne have had a Farm to Fork Visit from Tesco!
Jenny from Tesco kindly came in to talk to the children about where their food comes from!
She brought with her a large variety of fruit and vegetables for the children to explore and then gave the children lots of information about where they are grown and how they grow.
The children tried, banana, blueberries, pineapple, pomegranate, quiona shoots, red peppers, sugar snap peas and spinach!
The children could not believe that a pineapple grows in the ground, they guessed a tree!
Thankyou to Jenny for coming in and helping to get the children interested and engaged in healthy eating.
Flying Start @ Camborne are making their numbers match…
The preschool children have been learning how to recognise numerals.
They count out how many objects fill the spaces and then match this to the number! Lots of the children now recognise their special number… 3! or 4! and we are working on developing recognition of 1-5.
Send in your photos to your child’s online learning story of them recognising numbers when out and about so that their keyworker can see their progress at home as well as nursery!
Flying Start @ Camborne have visited their local Residential Home to bring some Christmas joy!
The children visited Mount Pleasant Residential Home recently to bring some Christmas joy to the elderly residents!
The children sang a selection of Christmas Songs to the residents, encouraging them to join in and even taking some special requests!
They got a big applause before sharing a snack of orange juice and gingerbread biscuits.
The children chatted to the residents, and even met a lady who was 104 years young!
The children then sang some nursery rhymes before wishing everyone a Merry Christmas, what a lovely way to spend an afternoon.
Flying Start @ Camborne have performed their annual Christmas Carols in Camborne Church!
The children dressed up in their costumes and the parents, grandparents and extended family came in force…
Over 100 friends and families of the nursery joined together to watch!
The children sang their hearts out, remembering all of the words and doing a fantastic job!
The older children also performed a little nativity!
What a wonderful afternoon, followed by mincepies and hot chocolate in the church.
Thankyou to all who came, the effort put in by staff and parents in getting the children ready for it and for all of the donations so gratefully received and passed on to the church.
Merry Christmas from Flying Start @ Camborne!
