What we will be learning
Our younger children will be creating lots of wonderful Spring themed art work for our walls. As well as watching and learning about our very own caterpillars turn into cocoons and then butterflies.
​
Our 2 year old will learn about space, trying to name the planets, and explore our solar system.
​
Then in our top room, we will continue to learn about the life cycle of flowers. We will talk about whether dinosaurs are carnivores or herbivores, and what they might eat.
Some of our activities

This month we will be continuing our Spring themed activities. Our younger children will be painting some flowers and creating different patterns. We will also be exploring the water in a flower themed sensory experience.

Some of our older children will be starting to explore space creating paper mache planets, stars with tin foil and conducting science experiments with home made rockets.
​
Our preschool room will explore the topic of dinosaurs, making fossils and playing feed the dinosaur games.
