Flying Start @ Helston Have Visit From A Pilot!

The pre-school children at Flying Start @ Helston were very excited to have a special visit, from a parent who is a pilot!

She told the children all about being a pilot, and her job in the desert, which was so interesting, and then the children (and staff!!) got to try on a pilots helmet!

And they even learned about what a compass does, and what it is for!

A huge thank you to the parent who took time out of her day to come & speak to the children!

What a fantastic chance to learn about such an exciting job!

Flying Start @ Saltash Welcome Spring By Making Butterflies!

The pre-school children at Flying Start @ Saltash have been getting creative, and making some butterflies by cutting, sticking and painting!

They used lots of pastel coloured tissue papers, and did lots of scrunching and sticking… look at the brilliant concentration!

They will use their butterflies to make a lovely Spring display in the nursery.

Flying Start @ Saltash Enjoy Outdoor Play!

The children at Flying Start @ Saltash have been enjoying spending lots of time in the garden this recently – enjoying the spring weather!

The babies and toddlers have been climbing and trying out their balancing…

Meanwhile, the pre-school and holiday club children have been having great fun playing skittles!

Great fun & lots of fresh air!

Flying Start @ Duchy Pre-School Explore Loose End Play!

The pre-school children at Flying Start @ Duchy have been exploring loose end play on the tuff spot…

With a huge range of exciting materials on the tuff spot for them to connect together to make whatever they wanted to, the children were completely engrossed!

They worked together and on their own to connect and create!

Flying Start @ Duchy Toddlers & Babies Enjoy Messy Art!

The toddlers and babies at Flying Start @ Duchy took part in a messy art session together!

Lots of different colours of paint were put on the tuffspot and then the children used their hands, stamps and rollers to roll or stamp the paint!

They then placed pieces of paper onto the tuffspot to make patterns on the paper… and create some fantastic artwork!
