Flying Start @ Penryn Go On A Family Day Out To St. Michael’s Mount!

Families, staff, and children from Flying Start @ Penryn all joined together to go on a big weekend adventure… to St. Michael’s Mount!

They travelled in a mini-bus down to Marazion, and then enjoyed a fun-filled day on the beach where they played games, ate their packed up picnic, and enjoyed the incredible view!

A fantastic day out was had by all – and a huge thank you to the dedicated staff team at Flying Start @ Penryn who continued to represent Flying Start so brilliantly in the community, in their own time over the weekend! And of course, a huge thank you to all the parents and children who came and joined in with the adventure… Where to next?!

Flying Start @ Duchy Have Been In The Garden Planting Flowers & Vegetables!

The children at Flying Start @ Duchy have been out in their garden planting some beautiful, colourful flowers!

All of the children have got involved, and have enjoyed getting their hands dirty scooping the compost into welly boots, and then planting the flowers in them and watering them!

The staff and children have also been planting some carrots in their planter boxes… they are watching them grow and caring for them, and hoping that in the future they can be picked  and eaten for a healthy snack-time!

Flying Start @ Saltash Run A Stall At The Saltash Regatta!

On the weekend of 11th June and 12th June,  the staff from Flying Start @ Saltash held a stall at the Saltash Regatta!

The nursery stall had lots of different activities set up for children to come and join in with, including play dough, sensory play of porridge oats, building blocks, and cars!

The event was a huge success, with many of the nursery children popping by to say ‘Hello’, as well as lots of new children joining in with the fun!

Thank you to the team at Saltash for giving up time over their weekend to represent Flying Start in such a fantastic way in the local community!

Flying Start @ Penryn Make Pizza’s!

The toddlers have been busy this week creating their very own pizza masterpieces!

They rolled and stretched out their base and spread passata on it and then really went to town on piling on some delicious and healthy toppings…

Using peppers, ham, grated cheese, sweetcorn and yet more cheese!

The children helped to cut up some of the ingredients developing their fine motor skills and control and looked, smelt, touched and even tasted the ingredients to explore which they wanted on top of their pizzas… finally when they were baked they enjoyed them at snack and even had a little slice to take home!
